Warmup from the other day! I'm back on Museum after nine whole years, and I forgot how fun it was.

Prototype 4.0

Tried to improve some more of the interface.As this app is targeted towards the museum, added some museum logo and to give the user some detailed information about the Allosaurus, added ‘info’ option. 

Tried to implement, feeding option and the Allosaurus reacting to it,  running around the target image instead of running at the same place and dinosaur reacting to the finger touch instead of buttons, As these type of animations, and features need extra time to implement. As I am running out of time to implement in this serious play paper, I will be implementing all these suggestions in the thesis work. These are suggestions came from the users who tried with this app.  Even planning to implement touch based interactive learning about the artefact instead of reading a text in the thesis work, as during that time there will be a good amount of time to test, reiterate and implement appropriate interaction to create enjoyable experiences.

Residents of the South Pacific island Rapa Nui carved hundreds of towering stone moai (“MO-eye”) statues like this one to honor ancestors. These statues were carved from volcanic rock, stood between 13 and 32 feet tall, and weighed an average of 14 tons! 

In 1935, the Museum sent an expedition to Rapa Nui. An artist on that trip made a plaster cast of a moai found on the inner slope of the volcanic crater Rano Raraku. The Museum’s moai is based on that cast. 

Find this statue, additional facts, and much more with the help of the Museum’s Explorer app, now available in beta. Download the app.

Recognize this face? The Museum's Olmec head is a plaster replica of a sculpture that was discovered in Veracruz, Mexico, in 1945. Colossal carved heads found in Mesoamerica are thought to be portraits of powerful rulers from the ancient Olmec civilization. Only 17 such sculptures have been discovered. 

Fun fact: the Museum's replica is based on a sculpture that is estimated to weigh 40,000 lbs, the equivalent of 16 hybrid cars, 133 manhole covers, or 40,000 heads of iceberg lettuce!

Guys, I’m desperately looking for links to the following Tumblr posts and can’t find them: 

there was a post going around that started with a picture of some teens browsing their phones in a museum; somebody who reblogged explained that it was actually from an article about a museum app, and rebloggers were angered about how everybody always assumes that teens only do useless things on phones

there was a really popular post about a restaurant with a deaf staff that requires you to use sign language to order (Google says there are multiple of those, but I’m pretty certain it’d be the one in Toronto or the one in NYC)

The thing is that I don’t need the original sources, but I need the actual Tumblr posts and I need it to be the viral, popular ones with the many notes, not the various reposts that died quickly. I need this for an article with a looming deadline. Tumblr tag search sucks and I can’t find these two that way. If you have the links, or a better idea than me on how to find them, or if you should encounter any of these in the next couple of days, please let me know. Or just reblog them and tag me. You’d be doing me a huge favor.
