Voices from the Colosseum
BRIDGING MEDIA ON CULTURAL SITES
The Colosseum as a media for storytelling
The walk along Via dei Fori Imperiali becomes a playful interactive narrative. As you capture the beauty of the Colosseum and surrounding area with your tablet or smartphone, you will receive a short movie clip, related to the photo taken.
Let’s say you take a picture of the “Statue of Caesar”, his “Forum ” or the “Senate”… you might receive a video clip on Caesar and Cleopatra or on Caesar’s assassination or hear a monologue from the great dictator. These engaging video clips, based in historical fact, will open your eyes to the famed love affair between Cleopatra and Caesar, the conversion of Constantine, Trajan’s resurrection and much more…You will even see a virtual reconstruction of the Colosseum as Vespasian intended it!
