Abstract:
Experimental device, developed in order to represent changes that occurred on Krakow’s market square over a period of 750 years. The device combines a master board, spatial representations of the artefacts, with a coding of their position on the board and in ordinal time, and a tangible timeline for each artefact with a coding of different types of changes, of durations, as well as of uncertainty (in the dating).
Initially designed for the blind, our first proof-of-concept prototype was then extended to match the requirements of edutainment tasks and tested with various publics.
