@logaculture.bsky.social
We are a #HorizonEurope #ResearchProject exploring how innovative #LocativeGames can be used to promote #CulturalHeritage and #NaturalHeritage across #Europe. Check out our full details here 👉 https://logaculture.eu
✨ How do people experience #MixedReality at #heritage sites — and how can we #design better tools to tell those stories? Our latest #LoGaCulture #research, led by @bournemouthuni.bsky.social Jack Brett and Charlie Hargood, shows how!
