We created an interactive book dedicated to the traces of Serbian literacy and Glagolitic script in the monastery of St. Catherine in Sinai…
LiveViewStudio’s interactive books present a novel media experience that combines haptic and virtual elements. The concept is both simple and innovative: physical books with pages that can be turned, accompanied by simultaneous virtual animations, vivid images, and dynamic content triggered by the touch of a finger. This amalgamation of analog and digital on the pages of the books creates a captivating and enchanting encounter that has captured the interest of visitors of various ages and has opened new possibilities of interactive storytelling.
The multimedia-enriched book, showcased at the Historical Museum of Serbia, effectively render the heritage tangible, appealing to all the senses of the readers. The interaction with these books is a seamless and immersive experience as readers engage with the content by simply turning and touching the pages. The approach preserves the authenticity of the original physical book while simultaneously transcending traditional methods of digital reproduction. The elaborate supporting technology intentionally remains in the background – hidden inside the ceiling and concealed in the pedestal beneath the book. In this way, the Glagolitic script continues to hold its historical significance and cultural relevance, converging harmoniously with the digital world of the 21st century.
The integration of haptic interactivity opens up new possibilities for storytelling. Through touch, readers can delve deeper into the narrative, enhancing the overall content delivery. The more engaging the interaction with the intelligent object becomes, the more captivating the conveyed content becomes.
While interactive books may never become mass-produced commodities due to their intricate and unique nature, they hold tremendous promise in the realm of education, cultural preservation, and engaging storytelling. The power of touch, combined with IoT, redefines the boundaries of print, offering a truly remarkable and unforgettable experience answering the need of new audiences across ages, themes, and subjects.
