Dalton, B and Halsall, B and Smith, ML (2008) Our City, Our Music: using mScapes to map new narratives. In: Handheld Learning, 13-15 October 2008, London, UK.

Abstract

Hewlett-Packard's mScape platform allows people to package up audio, images and movies along with geographical information to make interactive maps [Stenton 2007]. When downloaded to a location-aware device these media-maps trigger content based upon specific locations, story elements or more interactive game play. Our City, Our Music has been selected by b.TWEEN08 to develop a location-based album using the mScape platform. This paper presents our project as a case study for the educational potential, creative and social possibilities of this locative media technology.
