INFINITE MUSEUM
THE PROJECT
What if you could step into the past and explore the heritage of South & East Lincolnshire like never before? Welcome to the Infinite Museum!
MBD has teamed up with South & East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership to launch this innovative co-created project that uses VR to bring historical artefacts and local stories to life, making them accessible to a wider audience in an engaging and immersive way.
Step into a World of Discovery: Unlock the Heritage of South & East Lincolnshire with Community Co-Created Virtual Reality!
In partnership with the South & East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership, we invite you to embark on a thrilling virtual reality (VR) journey that brings history to life at your fingertips. Ascend through our virtual lift, where each floor unveils the rich heritage stories connected to remarkable local sites, including the iconic Ayscoughfee Hall.
Join us as we weave together community insights and artistic talent through engaging young person workshops and a unique artist residency. Together, we will bring to life the local stories that have shaped our community, creating engaging and accessible experiences for everyone!
Artists from all creative fields are encouraged to apply, regardless of experience in virtual reality. This includes writers, poets, sound designers, illustrators, and more. The residency will take place from 27 to 30 November 2024, and we welcome a maximum of 6 artists. Each selected artist will receive £1,000, making this a valuable paid opportunity for local talent.
ARTIST RESIDENCY:
We’re looking for 6-10 young people passionate about design, technology, or storytelling to collaborate with us to shape the young person's floor for the virtual experience. Together, we’ll create a short VR level inspired by the history and heritage of Ayscoughfee Hall, which will be showcased to the public in 2025. No prior experience is needed - just creativity and enthusiasm! This is your chance to learn new skills, contribute to a professional VR project, and have fun along the way.
