TYAMA: A Deeper Sense Of Knowing is an interactive journey into Victoria’s vibrant nocturnal world, using the senses of the animals we share it with. Created in partnership with Museums Victoria and inspired by First Peoples storytelling, the immersive experience invited audiences to play, connect and discover the magic of the museum’s collection through physical and digital worlds. With stunning immersive projections, tactile environment design and beautiful soundscapes.
Inspired by the sacred clan stories of Gunditjmara women, the TYAMA interactive exhibition invited visitors into a multisensory world of story. Here they had the chance to fly through pheromones to pollinate the sky, awaken the sea with their kin, and see in the dark through sound.
Situated in Melbourne Museum’s 1,000m2 Touring Hall, the exhibition featured some of the largest projection screens in Melbourne, 47 Panasonic projectors and 80 speakers driven by software gaming platform Unreal Engine which can generate real time 3D content.
