What will this be used for?
This map forms part of an artistic research and development project at Bangor University. Joanna Wright and Zoë Skoulding are testing the technology so see how it can enable different kinds of public participation in arts events, and may use this map as an example to help develop other projects. They are interested in how augmented reality mapping can allow more people to participate in events that link the arts and environmental issues.
Your consent:
By making an audio or image contribution you give consent for it to be included on the Augmented Reality map, which is available to the public. Your contribution may later be removed as the map is edited, and it will not remain online forever. You can withdraw your contribution by emailing Joanna Wright or Zoë Skoulding (address below).
This project is supported by a Bangor University Impact and Innovation Award, Placing Experiment. For any questions please contact
