MagiC Carpets Landed augmented reality guide
This is a journey through time based on the original text by the Lithuanian writer Justas Tertelis, from an idea of the curator Benedetta Carpi De Resmini. Set in the 17th century, the story passes through all the fifteen countries in the MagiC Carpets network, imagining the history of a new Europe without geographical or ideological borders.
From the Kaunas Railway station, the itinerary continues along the river, pausing at various stops, to arrive at the Picture Gallery, the final stop of the travelling exhibit. Viewers will be guided by a voice whispering the words of Eglė and Doron, the magical protagonists in Justas Tartelis’s story, in an immersive experience using augmented reality, allowing viewers to perceive the world of the story not only by listening, but with all five senses.
The guide is a tool provided to visitors to allow them to immerse themselves completely in the themes of the magical journey. It is not a canonical and didactic guide to the works. In fact, the narration pauses at each work and continues as the itinerary continues.
