Aladdin Booth
Project type
Construction, Design, Architecture
Date
Spring 2025
CMU has wacky tradition called Booth: a yearly competition wherein student organizations race to create the best Booth: a 10-foot tall wooden walkable structure for the public's enjoyment.
Booths are entirely designed, built, decorated, and managed by students, and the final results are honestly quite inspiring. Booths are fully operational by show day, with electricity, music, 3D special effects, and much more! For the spring of 2025, I served as the booth head for a cultural organization, overseeing design, construction, and electrical wiring. Our Booth, which was Aladdin themed, received second place in the "Blitz" category, a historic first for the organization.
Our special effects included strobe lighting, music in each room that would play upon button presses, a plinko board, and an AI-powered genie chatbot that would grant wishes to visitors.
