SEEDING SULLIVANT HALL:
Using Today’s Technology to Tell Yesterday’s Stories Through Image, Sound, and Interactive Media

This place-based project celebrates the historical and reinvigorated life of Sullivant Hall. As a way of enriching the on-campus living experience of visitors to this building, the physical environment has been embedded with media-rich information that enables location-based access to stories about the building's history. This interactive mode of mapping invites visitors to discover information about the past occupants, activities and events that form the cumulative history of this place.
