Herbarium

• Interactive Design

This interactive installation presents a digital version of Cyprian's Herbarium. To achieve a deeper and more authentic experience the installation uses a principle of direct manipulation where white pages are bound into a book and both serve as a remote control for presentation and as well as a projection surface for the image. The direct connection between the physical object and its projected image with the feel of natural paper adds a haptic dimension to this experience.

Cyprian's Herbarium is shown as a part of the permanent exposition Biodiversity in Slovak National Museum in Bratislava since 2010.
