Engaging the Past: Digital Strategies for Empathy and Memory in Heritage Sites

This project explores how digital media can enhance engagement and understanding of historical narratives at various heritage sites, including Richard III's Car Park, the Tower of London, IWM North, Stonehenge, and the British Museum. By creating interactive tools designed for specific audiences, we aim to promote empathy and reflection on complex histories and contested artifacts. Visitors will discover diverse emotional resonances, facilitating deeper connections to these significant locations and their stories, ultimately reshaping their learning experiences.
