From its conception in 2012, to its exhibition at Carbon Meets Silicon II in 2017, the advances in augmented reality technology led to an interplay between the goal of the creators and the technological realisation of that vision. The art, design and technology involved, generated a reactive process that was mired in external influences as the accessibility to augmented reality became commercially valuable and subsequently restricted. This chapter will be of interest to anyone who wants to understand more about the possibilities, technologies and processes involved in realising mixed reality practice and about the commercial culture that supports it. Keywords: Augmented reality • Sculpture • Extended realities • Transmediation • Embodiment • Virtuality x.1 Introduction The artwork In Darwin’s Garden was developed by the artist Chris Meigh-Andrews with the collaboration and assistance of Rowan Blaik, Head gardener at Down House, and the author, a design educator and researcher at the University of Chester, UK.

  • Application for Faculty Development Program PROJECT GRANT
    Application for Faculty Development Program PROJECT GRANT Name: Tamara F. O’Callaghan Department: English Office: LA 547 Office Phone: Ext. 6977 e-mail address: [email protected] Project Title: The Augmented Palimpsest: Engaging Students through AR Encounters with the Past Amount Requested: $4,000.00 Short Project Description: The Augmented Palimpsest is a digital humanities tool that explores how the medium of Augmented Reality (AR) can be used in teaching medieval literature. Using Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, a fourteenth-century poem written in Middle English, the tool will deliver digital enhancements that emerge from the printed page via a smart device. They will provide the reader with linguistic, historical, and cultural contexts, thus giving students greater access to medieval material culture and history. The digital content will include 3D models of medieval artifacts and architecture, large and complex enough to be walked around and viewed from multiple angles. Because the enhancements emerge from the printed page, the tool will maintain a pedagogical emphasis on close reading while encouraging students to develop their skills in textual analysis, critical thinking, interdisciplinary study, and new media literacy. It will improve the reader’s comprehension of the text by preserving the physical and kinesthetic connection to the text. The target audience for the tool includes both undergraduate students, who will encounter The Canterbury Tales in a survey literature course, and high school seniors, who are required to read selections of Chaucer’s poem as part of the National Common Core Standards. Tamara F. O’Callaghan October 1, 2013 signature* date * By typing your name or pasting your signature in the space provided you are allowing this application to be reviewed by the Faculty Benefits Committee for a possible award.
