Great news to hear that Cogapp recently picked up a BIMA award for the interactives produced for the Great North Museum. The category was ‘the best Offline: Kiosk, Installation or On-Site Application’. I lead the design and produced all the creative on the Medieval Case Study interactive (featured on my site) and assisted on the design of the Set Works Bench, an interactive guide to an extensive display of taxidermy animals.

Great North Museum - Medieval Case Study Interactive

Great North Museum ~ Medieval Case Study Interactive

This interactive was part of a set of digital installations provided by Cogapp to the Great North Museum : Hancock in Newcastle upon Tyne for their launch on 23rd May 2009. I was lead designer on the medieval project, coming up with the concept, handling all design work and overseeing the build by Joshua Routh, Cogapp’s in-house flash resource. Cogapp developed the installations in conjunction with The Great North Museum, Casson Mann and Nick Bell Design.

I collaged images creating a touch-screen table top environment where children can explore the three sections of the interactive, finding out about people and objects from Medieval times and about archaeology.
