Museum Box

museum box

This site provides the tools for you to to build up an argument or description of a person, event or issue by placing items into a virtual box. What items, for example, would you put in a box to describe your life or the life of a Victorian Servant? What evidence would you collect if you had to show that slavery was wrong and unnecessary? And what would you include if you had to make the case for or against climate change? You can display anything from a text file to a movie. You can also view and comment on the museum boxes submitted by others.

Newsreel

C Day Lewis’ 1936 poem read over contemporary newsreel footage. Shows the uncanny power of the Pathe archive to shed light on 20th century culture and what can be done with basic video editing software. Also contains good information on copyright issues.
