An interactive site-specific mapping project produced by Hofstra University students as part of the 2017 Hofstra in Rome Study Abroad course. The research sites are Rome, Frascati, L'Aquila and Scampìa, Italy. All material is produced by the students of Hofstra in Rome in collaboration with Shoot4Change utilizing the Spatial Humanities Kit .
The LHSC Media Archeaology Project is a month long digital mapping and storytelling project produced by the students of the Herbert School of Communication at Hofstra University in collaboration with Shoot4Change . During July 2017, students researched and reported on social inequality, government corruption, recovery and revitalization, and media change. They interviewed subjects in Rome, Frascati, L'Aquila, and Scampìa.
What follows are three maps with site-specific locative tags. The maps require the user to click on the location markers to expand the information. Some of the tags include video interviews and other tags include 360 images hosted on Flickr. Every tag represents the exact geographical location the images or recordings were taken. The goal is to create an archaeological record of the spaces and voices of Italy in 2017 through the lens of Herbert School students.
