Abstract:
|
“By combining classic storytelling with several entertainment innovations including Augmented Reality, gamification, escape rooms, automation, projection mapping, guerrilla marketing, and a touch of immersive theater, X-VOTO is an experiential, egalitarian alternative to the quintessential example of adult micro-escapism: going out to a restaurant. People go to restaurants for a change of pace and to connect with others, but what if that restaurant offered a change in reality and a connection to a new narrative? Restaurant patrons also often seek a cultural experience while dining, so why not place them in the mythos and lore that was the foundation of that culture? The X-VOTO interactive pop-up automat experiences, where each urban installation is a unique neon-noir, neo-paganism temple devoted to a different antiquarian deity complete with modular furniture and set pieces adaptable to any location, serves up everything the modern adult diner is hungry for: culture, connection, intrigue, a good story and an enticing escape from reality.” –Abstract
Keywords: themed entertainment design, experience design, restaurant design, concept design, mythology, immersive, modular, pop-up, egalitarian.
