Design Objectives:

The purpose of this exhibit is to educate and also inspire

Catholics and Christians of other denominations on the third

person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. This kiosk is part of an

exhibit on the Holy Spirit, which stems from other exhibits on

God the Father and Jesus, the Son. This is all in one Catholic

interactive museum.

The target audience is for Catholic or Christian young

adults and adults. It is mainly targeted toward a young adult

audience between age 18-35 because there is a need among the

young people of the Church to learn about the Holy Spirit, and

his role in our lives. The secondary audience is for teenagers.

Teens can come together with their youth groups or with friends.

Although there is a primary and secondary target audience, the

Holy Spirit is for everyone and anyone can learn from this

exhibit.

Creative Treatment:

The opening to the exhibit is a doorway that is in the shape

of an open book, which is the Bible. The first room that you will

enter into is all about the Holy Spirit’s presence in the Bible

all the way from creation in Genesis, throughout the Old

Testament and then Jesus foreshadowing the Holy Spirit in the New

Testament. This room is a giant timeline. It will be like a semi-

circle where you can walk around and interact with the screens on
Holy Spirit Kiosk Proposal, Cronin 3

the wall. The wall will look like an art gallery. Each image will

depict a story or person from the Bible. If you tap on the image,

it will turn over and reveal information on the role of the Holy

Spirit in that particular story or person. In the center on the

room, there is a kiosk of an interactive Bible. As you open to a

page, the text will turn red whenever there is a reference to, or

something that describes an attribute of the Holy Spirit.

At the chronological end of the interactive gallery wall,

there are images of the crucifixion and then the resurrection.

There is a doorway and a staircase that you can see next, this

leads to the next room of the exhibit. As you go up the

staircase, you will see different pictures of the Apostles and

other followers of Jesus that were in the upper room during

Pentecost.

The upper room that you are in is where you will learn about

Pentecost and be able to experience it in an interactive way. In

the upper room, you are immersed into a 4D experience. It begins,

with a rush of a mighty wind. (Acts 2:2) They will hear what it

might have sounded like, feel the heat from the tongues of fire.

The tongues that you will hear, will become English, as we can

hear it in our native language. Next you will hear from a 4D

projection of Peter, and his address to the crowd. (Acts 2:14-42)

After leaving the upper room, you will enter through a

doorway that has a projection of flowing water. The water

Holy Spirit Kiosk Proposal, Cronin 4

signifies the sacrament of Baptism. In Baptism, we are made

temples of the Holy Spirit. He dwells inside of us, and so this

room focuses on the application of life in the Holy Spirit. On

the wall of the room, it is similar to the first room, where you

can click on something to view more information. For example,

there is a picture of the Vatican in Rome, and the information is

about how the Holy Spirit keeps the Church alive. There are

pictures of different symbols of the Holy Spirit such as a dove,

water, fire, etc. that you can click on.

In the center of the room there is an interactive kiosk

table. This touch screen table will display a quiz that 6 people

can gather around at once. This is not like a test of knowledge,

but it helps with the application of what was learned. The

questions are opinion based, and some answers are typed out with

the digital keyboard.

At the end of the quiz, you have to option to take a free

picture. A camera comes up and takes the picture on a timer when

you press go. The picture is printed, and you will receive your

picture of you in the upper room with a tongue of fire above your

head. It is a great reminder of the fact that the Holy Spirit is

always alive and with us!

Production and Marketing Plan:

The production of this exhibit, on Life in the Holy Spirit,

from start to finish I think can take one year. First, the ideas

and plans need to be drafted out and then the design needs to be

planned out. The design will continue to develop as the project

comes along. Then we will plan how we will build all of this and

what we will use to do that. The building and execution of design

will take some time next. Finally, we will make final touches on

the exhibit and make sure everything is installed.

Marketing this exhibit should be fairly easy, as it will be

a part of a museum that is already opened. We will market the

exhibit at the museum through posters, flyers and on the

internet. We will also market through the local newspaper,

television and radio. People will be excited about this exhibit,

and it will spread fast through word of mouth and the internet.

Proposed Budget:

The budget of this exhibit is between $10,000-20,000. Until

we figure out the resources that we will use for this exhibit,

the budget is not completely final.
