The touchscreen version of COMPASS, the British Museum's collections online, in the Museum's Reading Room, currently has two 3D reconstructions: one of an ancient Egyptian tomb chapel (the tomb of Nebamun) showing the the various fragments of wall painting now in the Museum. The other is a reconstruction of a building on a Roman villa estate at Meonstoke in Hampshire. Another that is in the pipeline is a 3D reconstruction of a medieval astrolabe, showing the science behind the instrument and how it can be used to tell the time. Do get in touch for more information, Matthew Cock Content Manager Multimedia Projects Team New Media Unit The British Museum www.thebritishmuseum.ac.uk/compass [log in to unmask] tel: 020 7323 8169 fax: 020 7323 8730 >>> Josephine Walker <[log in to unmask]> 17/04/03 10:20:38 >>> I am enquiring as to whether anybody knows of any 3D reconstructed IT displays in a museum environment. At present I am planning to focus my dissertation on visitors experience of IT displays and require another case study. One of the displays I am interested in shows a site and its use/disuse over time and the other has a 3D reconstruction of a site and provides choices of narrative. I would be extremely grateful if you could get in contact with me, either by email, [log in to unmask] or by telephone, 07855 466785. Many thanks Josephine Walker
