EXTRA, the marketplace for scientific touring exhibitions.
To experience the subject of identity at its best, a custom-designed interactive quest is the exhibition's backbone. Visitors are asked to answers the question: «Which Star Wars character are you?». This interactive quest allows visitor to create a unique Star Wars character, both a mix our own identity components and some borrowed from the fictional universe of Star Wars. RFID technology as well as augmented reality will be part of the experience. Each visitor will receive his personal interactive device to be used along the visit.
This character-based exhibition will also demonstrate the complexity of the Star Wars characters and the process behind their creation. It will feature 20 + of the most endearing characters from the movies and animated features, from Luke, Leia, Anakin, and Padmé to the well-mannered C-3PO, the resourceful R2D2 and of course Yoda and the infamous Darth Vader. Star Wars Identities will be a once-in-a-lifetime close-up on costumes, props, models, and original 2d artwork from the Lucasfilm archives including some never-before-seen artefacts and artwork.
And this exhibition will be one of the first major 2.0 exhibition, as visitors will be able to share the results of their quest on their social media platforms as they exit. A great marketing tool to invite friends to come to the Museum!
