<p>Hi Genevieve,</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>in the grand exhibition hall in the National Museum in Edinburgh they have (had?) an very interesting concept to display the specimens: visitors need to match voices with corresponding animals. It was really interesting to see how many people got trapped
(=stayed) and engaged.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Might be worth checking if such a concept can be transferred into the virtual space (should be doable); the specimen information would then be a plus, while the trigger to attract the curiosity of the visitors is entirely different from how we usually attract
our audience.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>There are some similarities with the board game Wingspan: you can learn A LOT about North American bird life, but this information sneaks into the game from behind.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Hope this helps</p>

<p>Happy Monday everyone, </p>
<div>
<p>I'm doing a project on the visualization of zoology collections for my masters in museum studies, specifically on online public resources for visualizing collections. I'm interested in the intersection of online "collections tours" and database web portals,
where a virtual visitor can see interactive visuals of collections objects and the storage space and get specimen information. The example that inspired me is from UAMs Virtual Herbarium Tour (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.thinglink.com_scene_1406090479749038081&d=DwMGaQ&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=BsjUEaAzErVnOJA4kXSO_g&m=nZkklGjK_vHdsFk_tBbq6jmuF6NZFQ9of4umeqjR2EO6Ddd6NDRMSgkKCvFuJO7y&s=_m--DN7ChqC1MlFUKAj2-24IG4peU8EZwYRcJ3-9VxY&e=">https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1406090479749038081</a>),
where you can click on Caryophyllales and then see a visual of the cabinet, and click again to bring up a specific herbarium sheet with information on that specific specimen. I love this example because it gives a feel for the actual collections space and
can teach visitors about specific specimens without just linking to a database portal that is not as accessible to the public.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Would anyone happen to have other examples of this kind of collections visualization, or platforms that might be ideal for creating such a product? I'll be doing my project on one cabinet in our collection as a snapshot for the public to see how specimens
are stored and accessed. Of course this kind of virtual resource would not be feasible for an entire collection, but I think it's very intriguing and useful for visualizing a specific portion of a collection. </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Thank you!</p>
