Digital Systems: Exhibit.so
I experimented with IIF files and exhibit.so. My vision was to transform a digital exhibit I had already created into an exhibit.so exhibit. I was the project leader for a Florida Humanities Council Community Projects Grant that had the unfortunate timing of ending during the height of Covid-19 lockdowns. The grant requires a public…

Many of these books contain photos and other images of those campaigns and battles so that readers could get a grasp of…

This monument located in Tivoli, Italy has many interpretations from elaborate paintings, to basic etchings. When I saw it listed on Harvard’s online collection I jumped to work with this piece…
