Towards Designs for Virtual Interconnected Curation Spaces of Heritage Artefacts, Experiences and Histories (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Rhodes, R., Woolley, S. I., & White, D. (in press). Towards Designs for Virtual Interconnected Curation Spaces of Heritage Artefacts, Experiences and Histories.

Where immersive museum and digital heritage experiences exist, they are often only available for limited project timespans and they do not generally connect to other similar experiences and artefacts, nor connect to physical museums or heritage locat...
