In this work, we propose MagicHOLO, a method to support engaging collaborative and collocated experiences through 3D projections using personal mobile devices in the physical space of a museum. The users of the MagicHOLO mobile app are prompted to coordinate in order to create a common communication network for their devices and to decide on the elements to be included in the 3D presentation. By placing the devices in a specific order and distance and with the help of a 3D projecting pyramid, the synchronized video playback is converted into a three-dimensional digital imaging, designed to enhance the users' interaction with the exhibit in a playful and engaging way that promotes social interactions.
