Picasso iPod Audio Tour

iPod audio tour built for the Walker Art Center exhibition Picasso and American Art. This came with a twist however. The patrons for the exhibit skewed older, many had never used an iPod before. Thus I hacked the iPod firmware to display a different menu to help people find the track they were looking for broken down by Artist, Artwork, Location, and "Code", a unique identifier on each artwork's wall label.

In addition, the Walker wanted a cheap and simple way to charge all 25 iPods at once. We didn't have 25 power outlets and going rates for iPod charging tables at the time ran over $3000. To solve this, I daisy chained 3 USB hubs together to hook all of the iPods to one computer for power. Total cost: $60.
