With the rise of digital mediums of access, the physical storage room was no longer necessary. I challenged the idea of physicality using augmented reality and a simple ramp attached to Sibley Hall, allowing one to step into the sky, within the sea of photogrammetrically scanned and warped objects from the original arts quad. This extended arts quad enables users to walk up a ramped extension of Sibley Hall grasping knowledge out of the sky. One would reach up to an object which intrigued them. In their hands, the digital scan will reveal itself.
