Wherein our hero explores the first part of a video triptych entering the Asian Civilizations Museum...
...The second part of said triptych...
...And the third part of the triptych, which then leads into an introduction of the nifty interactive video kiosks that the museum uses to introduce each exhibition space.
Each video kiosk has a unique idle state, ranging from the resident character's whistling, to humming, to storytelling, to playing with masks. This one featured a fatherly gentleman singing a very comforting, loving lullaby - which was beautiful but also a little disconcerting, given his proximity to huge cases full of weapons.
An example of a video docent playing with masks in his idle state, and of what happens when you actually touch the screen in question.
