Crayola Experience - Going Digital

http://www.crayolaexperience.com/

Most of the activities I wrote about last week were fairly low-tech, but that was not everything there was to do.

In one area, you could bring sleeping crayons to life by moving for them - and dancing for them.

This can be pretty fun, especially if you are uninhibited, but it is hard to get a good picture while you are doing it, based on both the light and the restriction in you movement caused by holding the camera.

There was also something similar to electronic white boards, where you could doodle and watch it glow.

Maria decided to make a statement of loyalty to home. I just thought about the pets.

Art Alive! was one of the more interesting concepts.

On the wall is a scene, with some default objects, but some that were put there by visitors.

To put something into the scene,  you go to a drawing station and create your figure.

I colored this friendly crescent moon and added effects.

And then there he was, floating through the scene.

You can also disrupt the flow of melting colors. This one wasn't my favorite, as I thought the result was less aesthetically pleasing.

You can also take a green screen picture with a giant crayon, so have pictures on various backgrounds.

Comparatively, I enjoyed the other activities more, but it is interesting to find how - exploring one basic concept - there end up being so many different things you can do.
