A Nanonation Case Study
Joslyn Art Museum created Art Works, a hands-on gallery space, and engaged Nanonation to add two interactive experiences—Masterpiece and Stop Motion Stations—that let visitors produce realistic digital artwork that can be saved and shared via email. The project’s challenges were to simulate Jackson Pollock–style, gloppy paint blending on a life‑size digital canvas and to make the meticulous stop‑motion filmmaking process accessible to visitors in under two minutes.
Nanonation delivered a physics-based Masterpiece station where users “pour” paint and manipulate it with brushes, squeegees, or hands so the digital medium behaves like real paint, and a Stop Motion station with a simple interface, special effects, and video mode that demystifies stop‑motion and completes a movie in under two minutes. The result is hands-on visitor engagement with realistic, savable artwork and shareable stop‑motion videos—achieving the project goals Nanonation was hired to meet.
