In collaboration with the LOOKY team, the Historical Museum introduced an innovative concept blending traditional museum approaches with digital capabilities, enriching the standard format with interactivity in real and virtual spaces. A "Digital Nomad" zone was created in the exhibition "Wild Field.

In Eternal Motion," which highlights the life of Eurasian nomads. This segment offers a deep dive into Great Steppe culture through a virtual yurt space using VR technology to recreate dwellings, household items, and aspects of nomadic life in detail. Visitors could engage with history by interacting with 3D objects, such as throwing logs into a fire or virtually playing musical instruments while exploring artifacts. A unique feature allowed guests to create neuro-avatars through the LOOKY app to try on nomadic national costumes using AI and share their transformations on social media. The final touch of the virtual journey was receiving a digital amulet with steppe predictions. The project was realized with active participation from museum researchers and exhibition curators to ensure historical accuracy in every element.
