Creative Machines is an engineering and fabrication firm that specializes in interactive exhibits. Our mission is to create objects and environments that encourage creativity, support social interaction, and inspire self-confidence. And that’s all we do. Rather than try to do everything, we focus exclusively on world-class electromechanical interactives.

Our work is enjoyed by visitors in museums throughout the United States and many other countries. Many of our museum clients are repeat customers. They appreciate our understanding of the museum environment, our creativity, our emphasis on prototyping, and our ability to take a project from the conceptual stage through fabrication, installation and support.

Some of our projects have been technically sophisticated and involve ideas that have never been tried before. For this reason, we often assist clients at the early stages by doing research and prototyping to determine the feasibility of ideas.

Our 14,000 square foot shop is set up to support efficient prototyping and fabrication. We do almost everything in-house. We have complete facilities for wood and metalworking, we build and test our own electronics, and we make most exhibit components on our CNC machines (router, laser cutter, waterjet and 3D printer) to insure that replacement parts are perfectly interchangeable. We have eight different welding machines and three certified welders to join metal in a variety of ways. Because we do it all under one roof, we have the flexibility that comes with control and the efficiency that comes from tight integration.

Whether its one visitor or ten thousand, the visitor experience is what we’re all about.(Top: looking up through Bike Church, our walk-in sculpture made from recycled bicycle parts. Bottom: the stage we built for Tucson’s 2004 All Soul’s Procession.)

We are both designers and fabricators. We take projects from concept through completion.

“Inspire is a word often overused in the museum field. However, inspiration is at the core of every experience I had with Creative Machines. Inspired ideas continuously came from them during the design process. They were and are a pleasure to work with. And their products inspire young and old learners everyday. This is a direct result of their commitment to the audience. Creative Machines doesn’t design for designers or exhibit creators; they design so that visitors (kids) are the designers and creators.” Ben Dickow, California Science Center

“Creative Machines is unique in their approach, inventiveness and the quality of their work. They provided a confidence that made the most fearful in our group feel at ease. Their ‘can do’ attitude, approach to problem solving, creativity, attention to our needs, and complete commitment to the importance of the visitor experience is testimony to their professionalism. The gallery they created for us is truly remarkable and I believe raises the standards for interactive galleries in art museums for years to come.”

Dr. Lynn Whitelaw, Director, Leepa Rattner Museum of Art

“Not only does Creative Machines have wonderfully creative ideas,but they listened to us, and designed exhibits that met our needs.”

Karen Johnson, Executive Director, Discovery Science Center

Prototyping is essential to our design process because it tells us things we did not know before. We are fully committed to testing exhibit ideas with visitors - both in our shop and at nearby institutions. We use a combination of site visits and videos to involve you as part of this process. We will look to you to suggest the best format for review and evaluation. They are your exhibits and we will accommodate your process.

The Workshop—a programming space at Liberty Science Center.Discovery carts for Children’s Museum of Utah.Student programs in The Big Lab at California Science Center.

A science demonstrator at the Bishop Museum melts lava in the demonstration equipment we created.

Our team has years of relevant experience in exhibit design and fabrication. But more importantly, we have years of experience as museum staff – interacting with visitors, creating public programs, and supervising other staff and volunteers. This experience with programming informs our thinking about exhibits.

Much of our work has involved creating spaces and exhibits specifically to support programs – especially programs that are led in great part by visitors. Before founding Creative Machines, owner Joe O’Connell helped create program spaces and the programs they support at Science North, Liberty Science Center, and Inventure Place. Recent projects by Creative Machines feature prominent programming elements. For example we collaborated with Gyroscope Inc. on the conceptual design of The Big Lab for California Science Center and then as designers and fabricators to create much of the exhibits and permanent elements that support programming in the space. More recently, we completed a program space for the Bishop Museum in Honolulu Hawaii. We created a furnace for melting lava, a custom cart to hold and display lava melting accessories and staff training for the demonstrators. In 2005 we created the master plan for The Studio, a hybrid exhibits/program at the Children’s Museum of Utah.

One project where prototyping proved essential was our work for the Bishop Museum in Honolulu. Creative Machines was involved right from the start, working with Gyroscope which held the principal design contract. In a series of meetings with the client, we helped define a set of visitor experiences that evolved into the group of exhibits that we fabricated and installed. Along the way, we did extensive prototyping and learned greatly from visitors.

The most dramatic exhibit that we developed for the Bishop museum is the world’s largest scientifically accurate simulation of an erupting volcano. It involves computer control of multiple three-phase pumps, injection of compressed air, and hundreds of gallons of a proprietary glowing liquid that we developed in-house. But it started with some simple experiments in a wading pool to duplicate the physics of erupting lava. In this case, we used prototyping to establish the viability of our ideas and to run the effects we were getting past volcanologists in Hawaii.

In other exhibits for the Bishop Museum, we needed to test visitors’ reactions to our prototypes so we invited guests to our shop, flew the Bishop staff over and spent a day watching visitors use the exhibit prototypes. In one exhibit at which visitors pump hot wax up through a moving plate that simulates the formation of island chains over volcanic “hot spots,” we learned that visitors are less interested in the moving plate than they are in controlling the flow of wax to duplicate features of Hawaiian shield volcanos such as lava tubes. Even though we had completed most of the engineering to make the plate move over the wax hot spot, we redesigned the exhibit to get rid of the moving plate and give visitors more control over the wax speed and pressure.

The Bishop Museum hired us again in 2010 to create three more interactive exhibits.

We worked with Joe Ansel and his staff for many years as they designed the exhibition program for Phaeno. We and a handful of other firms helped develop the design manual that guided the cabinetry and visitor experience of all the exhibits. We then designed, fabricated and installed three prominent exhibits.

Our Telepresence Arm gives the visitors the feeling that their head is flying through space. It holds a prominent place in Phaeno. the luminescent drum on our EKG exhibit shows visitors the electrical signals from their heart.

Our Strobe String is a favorite because of the number of variables that can be manipulated and observed. (Photo by Ansel Associates.)

We live and work in the middle of the Sonoran Desert so what could we know about water? Plenty. We have designed and fabricated many innovative water-related exhibits and have special expertise in the areas of water filtration, maintenance of water exhibits, and (most important) how to have fun with water. We have created the following water-related interactives:

• FourteenStream Tables (eight in stainless steel, six in fiberglass) offering a variety of features and with a variety of media.

• AlltheinteractivecomponentsforWaterworks at the California Science Center. Waterworks provides kids with six underwater pumps and a full range of fountain and plumbing accessories (including laminar flow nozzles and jumping jets) plus instruments to adjust and measure flow rate and pressure.

• Water Projector - an art piece represented in galleries and designed into an upcoming interac-tive museum.

• Ripple Tank - a giant overhead projector with wave generators used to visualize wave refraction and reflection.

• Tsunami for the Anchorage Museum - an exhibit where visitors create waves by landslide, and then film the waves with a high-speed video camera.

• Bubble Tubes - an exhibit using medical-grade sillicone for the look of water but absolutely no maintenance.

• Eruption Effect - We developed a proprietary mix of chemicals to make water behave as if it were molten lava.

• Bubbles - We performed extensive technical consulting for a major exhibition opening May 15 at the Children’s Museum of Denver.

We get interactivity right. We built this Stream Table for Vilvite in Bergen, Norway. Our Water Projector was developed in house as an experiment but has found several homes.Our Dredging Table is a schematic model of the Hudson River estuary.

Our shop is always open to walk-in visitors.We entertain thousands at free events such as Kids Festival (April 2005) and El Tour de Tucson Downtown Fiesta.

Tucson’s All Soul’s Procession is one of the largest Day of the Dead celebrations in the world. In 2005 we built the urn that formed the centerpiece of the parade. It paraded through town where people filled it with prayers and offerings. It was then hoisted in the air and burned. With every passing year, the urn has been reused and the festival has become more elaborate.

Our show at the Joseph Gross Gallery involved a gallery full of our sculptures, nightly performances that spilled out into the streets, and attractions for young and old.

Tucson has been our home for fourteen years. We draw upon the unique resources of this multi-cultural desert city and we give back to our community as much as we can.

We regularly entertain thousands of families by setting up interactive exhibits at free public events. We’ve also reached other groups with free gallery shows at Dinnerware Gallery and the Joseph Gross Gallery on the Campus of the University of Arizona. This show at the University of Arizona included a series of performances that we created in collaboration with local belly dancers, fire performers, magicians, poets and musicians. We have been major supporters of Tucson’s annual All Soul’s Parade. We’ve given tours and technical help to several classes of sculptors and multi-media artists from Pima Community College and the University of Arizona. We work with at-risk high school students on some of our public art projects. And our shop is always open to walk-in visitors.

We receive most of our electricity from a photovoltaic array that we installed on our roof in 2005.

Very little of our scrap goes to waste.These pieces will be used by sculpture students at nearby Pima College.

SEED[Pop!]—our solar-powered popcorn popper—was commissioned for the 2010 SolarDecathlon in Washington, DC.

Sustainability is a broad concept that informs how we design and fabricate exhibits, relate to our community, and run our facility. Our commitment to sustainability goes back more than a decade and it takes four forms:

Energy UseOur Southern Arizona location provides abundant energy in the form of sunlight. Already 75% of our shop space is lit by skylights. To derive further power from the sun, we have installed our own photovoltaic array to provide much of our electricity—the first such installation by a private for-profit company in Pima County.

Materials UseWe use green materials wherever our clients will let us, and we’ve been doing so for ten years. We choose materials that are recycled, sustainably harvested, and require less energy to manufacture and transport.

Reuse of MaterialsWe have the smallest dumpster our trash company will allow. That’s because we have an efficient system for storing and reusing materials. We also donate literally tons of wood, metal, and plastic pieces to local artists and schools every year.

Art and InspirationIts better to inspire people than scold them. That’s why our exhibits and public art invite people to see the material world, the flow of energy, and their own place in the system in new and exciting ways.

George Rhoads is well known for his large audiokinetic ball sculptures that engage people throughout the world. Balls roll and percussion devices clatter and chime in airports, hospitals, art museums, sci-ence museums, shopping centers and other public places. Rhoads has designed over 250 unique pieces, virtually all of which are still in operation.

At Creative Machines, we have always admired George Rhoads’ ball machine sculptures and in 2007, we begin fabricating them under an exclusive arrangement. George personally designs and signs the sculp-tures he designs. We build, test and install them. With his blessing we also create our own designs using the ideas he pioneered. Some of these designs feature interactive devices, electromechanical features and sophisticated lighting.

We have an ongoing relationship with the art world. We have frequently contributed sculpture to juried shows and helped other artists with their pieces. We’ve designed an interactive art gallery, and we’ve put on an eight-week multi-media show featuring our sculptures, belly dancers and fire performers. In the last few years we’ve won a number of commissions to make public art of our own. Our work often involves technology and interactivity: LEDs, sound, touch-sensitive circuitry, optical projection, laser-cut steel and microcontrollers. We are a strong advocate of art that is beautiful at first glance but yields deeper rewards with sustained engagement.

Desert O was one of our first public art commissions. It gathers solar energy in the day and emits light at night. Each night of the week has a different pattern of moving colors.

This piece, called Wondrous, features hundreds of words and three of the world’s brightest LEDs. It is both a stand-alone sculpture and a projection system. It was commissioned by a library and community center that are active in the evening.

Public Drums was commissioned for a troubled park where criminals shoot out the lights and scare the kids.

By contrast piole kabuto was commissioned for one of Japan’s most upscale shopping malls.

We sell interactive exhibits individually and in groups. This page shows some of our most popular ex-hibits. Each of these exhibits was created for a particular client and situation. Our exhibits invite visi-tors to walk up and try something even if they don’t know what will happen. The exhibit rewards the initial trust offered by the visitor and offers them significant freedom to create and explore. Visitors often spend 20 minutes or more exploring the full potential of our exhibits. We can re-create these for you, but custom work is where we excel. If you are looking for something that doesn’t appear on these pages, please contact us and we’ll work with you to create it.
