Description

Interactive Media students worked with Museum Services at Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council to develop a range of interactive experiences to support Council’s NI100 programme.
With access to 10 different museum archives, students repurposed these archival assets into an interactive online experience using an underlying documentary approach. These archives included the NW200, Sam Henry, Corfield Photography Factory, George Shiels, Peter Woodman and the dig at Mountsandel, WWII Coleraine Battery, Charlie McAfee and the Ballymoney Show.

As part of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council’s NI100 programme, Interactive Media students from Ulster University Coleraine worked with Museum Services to create new interactive websites. Looking at collection themes that were relevant to the last 100 years of history in the Causeway Coast and Glens, the students have developed different ways for audiences to engage with the Museums collections. The exciting new websites explore the history of the NW200, Coleraine Battery, Ulster University, Ballymoney Show, Mountsandel and the Corfield Camera Factory in Ballymoney.
