The Mysterious Disappearance of Edgar Allan Poe
This project was an experimental interactive exhibit space where I got to play around with special effects and storytelling. The viewer comes into Poe’s personal study as a detective looking for clues as to how Poe disappeared and died, one of the great literary mysteries of our time. On the exterior wall is a traditional style exhibit displaying information about Poe’s life and tragic backstory. Inside is a much more theoretical, poetic experience where his stories and his life meld together and create a picture about some truths of his psyche. Hidden throughout the space are clues to historian theories as to how he died so mysteriously.
