Calne Interactive
To enhance the
content of the information boards and artefacts on display throughout the
centre, we also have two interactive touchscreen systems.
The
systems were provided to us by local businesses and show further
historical information on the town in photographic, video and animation
forms.
Calne
Transformed
is a series of photographic archives built from materials provided to the
centre from a range of sources depicting scenes from the town over the
past 50 years. Photographs shows the Harris factory and it's
demolition in the 60's, buildings around the town which no longer exist,
the development of new areas of the town and other local scenes.
Calne
Miscellany
is a collection of archive footage collected from television and home
video sources covering royal visits to the town, the Harris bacon factory
and other local content.
Growth
Of Calne
is a series of animated interactive maps showing how the town has grown
and developed from map sources dating back to c1006 right up to the
present date. Users of the system will be able to see how
particular sites have formed (and disappeared) over the past 1000 years
and also see how the names of areas around the town have changed or
became known.
Yatesbury
Slideshow
is a series of photographs presented as an animated slideshow showing
some of Yatesbury's history from the days of the active RAF camp to it's
eventual closure and subsequent other uses of the site.
NEW...
A new interactive touchscreen system is being developed which will
feature virtual access to a number of historic buildings within the
town. More news soon..
The
touchscreen systems are also available for use by other exhibitors if
required. Please contact us for further
information.
