How These Conversations Were Made Possible

Bringing these stories to life required cutting-edge technology. Each interactive interview was filmed over the course of several days using a 116-camera rig that captured every angle of the survivor’s expression, posture, and presence. Thousands of questions were asked—some deeply personal, others historical or reflective—to ensure an authentic and wide-ranging dialogue experience.

Advanced natural language processing now allows visitors to ask questions and hear real-time responses that are drawn directly from those filmed sessions—no scripts, no edits, just the survivor’s real voice and presence.

At our exhibit, you will encounter:

• Eva Schloss, who survived Auschwitz and went on to become a renowned author and speaker

• Aaron Elster, who spent two years in hiding in a neighbor’s attic as a child

• Pinchas Gutter, the first participant to help bring this technology to life

• Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, who survived by playing cello in the Women’s Orchestra of Auschwitz

• Alan Moskin, a young soldier with the U.S. Army who helped liberate the Gunskirchen concentration camp

Their stories have been preserved not only for us—but for generations to come.
