Details
CMG Worldwide, Worldwide XR, VueXR, and others are running a project that modernly recreates the literary legacy of Maya Angelou through her AI-generated voice. This project combines AI and augmented reality (AR) technology to design a way for users to encounter her writing more directly and vividly.
The main immersive experiences are as follows:
- AR Digital Quarter: An AR experience reinterpreting the US quarter coin honoring Maya Angelou.
- Caged Bird Experience: A digital space designed based on her famous poem.
- AR Poem Gallery: A gallery where the AI voice recites poems as they visually appear in the space.
- AR Digital Library: Her books rendered as giant book forms, with AI reading excerpts aloud.
- Dr. Angelou Museum Experience: A project in development showing her life and activities.
The project will be released starting February 24, 2025, through the VueXR app and the Worldwide XR website. It uses ElevenLabs' technology to vividly recreate her voice, aiming to convey her legacy in a new way and increase accessibility through technology.
