As you might have noticed, I am catching up on the latest things I’ve found on the web, and I thought that this Patrick Stewart narrated web trailer for the forthcoming BM exhibition on Hadrian might be of interest. You can also download the content as a closed captioned MP4 file (like the George Potts podcast we featured late last year) for your portable video player. Web 2.0 in the Museum…..
There’s quite a lot of opportunity for User Generated Content and web 2.0 content for an exhibition site such as the Hadrian or China exhibition. One could pull into a Google map interface quite easily things such as the English Heritage World Heritage site of Hadrian’s Wall, photos from flickr with geo tags, data from geoRSS enabled databases of artefacts and references to Hadrian or his rule from sites such as Pleiades.
OpenCalais helped to tag this with: china • exhibition site • George Potts • Google • Patrick Stewart • web trailer
