About this episode
Museums and galleries have in recent years spent considerable time and effort in digitisation projects, yet the software resources available to fully explore their collections are still largely unsatisfactory. In a joint project between the new media company Deep Visuals, the Scott Polar Research Institute, and Anglia Ruskin University we are developing a new browsing system aimed at enabling museum visitors to experience more fully the museum's digital assets beyond the exhibited artefacts.
