Museum Alarm Ceiling
Hok’s Museum Ceiling
Thousands of fine threads spiderweb across this ceiling from the poised hammer atop the seven-foot golden gong, dropping down to secure each display case in Hok’s museum. Indiana Jones pauses below to scan the overhead network, noting triggers, blind spots, and a clear escape line through the high window. Tension builds in the dim gallery as the fragile web turns every movement into a potential alarm trigger amid shadowed artifacts.

RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK
The Golden Gong's Web
The museum ceiling physically carries the trap: thousands of tiny threads spiderweb across its surface and drop to the cases. Its architecture transforms the overhead space into an active, invisible hazard that Indy must read like a map to avoid setting off the hammer-and-gong alarm.
Atmosphere
Overhead menace — the ceiling feels alive with taut lines and unseen triggers.
Functional Role
Trap architecture and sensor grid; the ceiling is the medium that connects cases to the hammer trigger.
Symbolic Significance
Embodies hidden control—beauty above concealing mechanisms of constraint.
Access Restrictions
Not physically accessible in the moment; its elements (threads, hammer) enforce movement limits below.
Spiderweb of hair‑fine threads spanning the ceiling.
A suspended hammer and its rigging anchored overhead.
Shadows cast by the rigging that indicate the web pattern.
