SKYLAB 5

Exhibition by LIQUIFER at the ZOOM Kinder Museum, Vienna, Austria
September 2005–March 2006

This interactive exhibition for children between 6-12 years of age featured a multi-media experience of a rocket launch, and simulation opportunity for the reoccupation of the deserted space station SKYLAB 5.

Digital animations are combined with architectural designs that can be physically explored inviting children to discover and speculate on the mysteries of space travel. Informational text and illustrations are presented and used to set up a fictional narrative for the exhibition.
