Title
Capturing and sharing stories in virtual and interactive web environments: a cross-organizational case study
Abstract
This case study describes the collaboration between Xerox Research and The Henry Ford Museum to explore ways to enable museum staff and visitors to interact with artifacts and each other in online environments. Building on the premise that stories are an integral part of the museum experience, the team developed prototype technologies, initially for use by the museum staff, to create stories around collection elements and enable story sharing and collaboration in 3D immersive environments. Ongoing feedback and evaluations by the museum staff guided prototype revisions. Suggestions by the museum staff for use of the prototypes in museum and educational contexts are also discussed.
