Maya Claire's Museum of All Things (MoAT) turns Wikipedia into an interactive and immersive experience, allowing users to explore various topics in virtual reality or on their desktops. Driven by nostalgia for educational content from childhood, Claire aims to evoke a sense of discovery that the internet offers. Utilizing the Godot game engine and Blender for object modeling, the museum emphasizes accessibility, with its code available on GitHub. Visitors can engage with exhibits like data visualization, which allows for interactive search and exploration within this expansive digital realm.
Imagine everything on Wikipedia in an infinite museum of galleries. That's what Maya Claire did, and you can walk through the museum via your desktop computer or in virtual reality.
I want to recapture the promise that the internet can be a place of endless learning and exploration.
The museum is greatly inspired by educational videos that I watched as a kid, and the liminal spaces produced by early CGI.
Naturally, I went to the data visualization exhibit: It's fun. You start in a lobby and can interact with a search console.
