Communication Arts has awarded the interactive table used in our exhibit on the Bosnian, Rwandan and Darfur genocides for the United States Holocaust Museum called “From Memory to Action” in the category of the Interactive Annual 16 in Information Design. The multitouch table, which was designed in conjunction with collaborators Potion, allows visitors to get more in depth information on individuals’ stories with these modern day atrocities by touching one of the projected pieces of text.
