Mark SoutherJ. Mark Souther, Professor of History at Cleveland State University, will lead an upcoming 90-minute workshop on the basics of location-based content creation using the Curatescape framework developed by the Center for Public History + Digital Humanities at CSU.
Curatescape (https://curatescape.org/) is a web and mobile app framework for publishing location-based content using the Omeka content management system. Curatescape emphasizes storytelling, rather than the display of single archival objects. Participants are welcomed (but not required) to bring a location-based story idea and related image files to experience the process of creating a story in Curatescape. Participants are also encouraged to attend Dr. Souther's public lecture at 4pm later that day.
Workshop date: Monday, April 8, 1-2:30 p.m.
DILAC Lab (Skiles 318, 686 Cherry St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313)
