The
ToyScout's Immersive Jukebox
The Immersive Jukebox offers users a choice of musical
experiences that explore various influences of African-American
blues: traditional African music, spirituals, work songs,
and others. Inspired by the curriculum of the International
House of Blues Foundation's Blues SchoolHouse program,
it introduces students and teachers to the music, art,
and history of the blues and its cultural origins.
The Toy Scouts is a multidisciplinary research group of
students, industry professionals, and research associates
at the University of Central Florida that develops creative
applications of virtual reality for play. The Toy Scouts
were challenged with augmenting this curriculum with an
affordable, mobile, highly interactive application of
the material for K-12 children.
