• Digital tools research project for Bonnefantenmuseum

  • Feb 2018 - May 2018

  Via a collaboration between Maastricht University Fasos and Bonnefantenmuseum, I conducted a research project about potential digital tools that would help reach out to new audiences. The focus carried upon the "old art" section of the museum. This led to the creation of a narrative for a potential VR experience focused on the 16th century medieval woodcarvings collection of the museum. Furthermore I clarified the learning outcomes of the project in line with the city of Maastricht’s cultural heritage policies Show less
