• BBC Click studio visit

    What a pleasure it was to welcome the BBC Click team to our studio to talk about StoryTrails.

    Giving them a glimpse into the making of the project, we showed how easy and accessible three-dimensional capture has become by creating a 3D scan of presenter Laura Goodwin within minutes. Heres Laura and her mini-me AR version.

    The full episode ‘Tech for Travel’ is now available on BBC iPlayer, and featured on BBC Breakfast, BBC News and internationally on BBC World Service. <Link here also>

  • First Light at Jodrell Bank

    Now open – the spectacular new exhibition at Jodrell Bank in Cheshire, home of the Lovell Space Telescope.

    We worked closely with exhibition designers Casson Mann, the First Light Exhibition will bring to life the Jodrell Bank story.

    Unearth inspirational stories of Jodrell Bank’s pioneering scientists in our new permanent exhibition and explore the depths of space in an immersive planetarium experience. Audiences are able to see fascinating archive materials brought together for the first time including audio, film, diaries, letters, plans and photographs, in innovative digitial displays and projections.

    The exhibition fabric is made from the skin of the Lovell Telescope, bringing visitors into direct contact with the authentic metal dish which has ‘listened’ to the heavens and been touched by cosmic rays and ‘space dust.’

  • The Raid – a Viking Adventure

    Roskilde 6 is famous for being the largest Viking warship ever discovered. Excavated alongside ten other warships on the banks of Roskilde fjord in the 1990s, only 20% of the original ship remains. But more than 1,000 years ago, when the Vikings ruled the waves, Roskilde 6 was the pinnacle of seafaring technology. Seeing its sails appear on the horizon struck terror into people. The ship would be carrying a small army of Viking men, hungry for glory, armed and ready to raid.

    Now, Roskilde 6 is the centrepiece of the Vikings exhibition at the National Museum of Denmark. It sits as the dividing line between two parts of the exhibition. On the one side, an unparalleled collection of artefacts is placed in context alongside the most recent research. On the other side, a breathtaking film brings a Viking raid to life.

    In just 12 months, from competition to opening, we developed the interactives and media for the exhibition designers EVENT, which breathes new life into the story of the Vikings in Denmark.
