Connecting Cookham with the Visitor Information Service BOX
23/07/2017
Digital Heritage Interpretation with the Visitor Information Service BOX
Connecting
Cookham
is an exploratory not-for-profit enterprise which will bring joined-up interpretation of this beautiful historic village and civil parish on the River Thames to benefit community and visitors alike.
Located in the north-easternmost corner of Berkshire in England, it is notable as the home of the artist
Stanley Spencer
, his paintings depicting Biblical scenes occurring as if in
Cookham
, the small village beside the River Thames where he was born and spent much of his life. Spencer referred to
Cookham
as "a village in Heaven" and in his biblical scenes, fellow-villagers are shown as their Gospel counterparts.
Chrissy Rosenthal has taken on the challenge of looking at how to integrate
VIS-BOX
, along with her vast knowledge of the life and art of
Stanley Spencer
, to creatively join up the paintings with their specific locations, whilst also interpreting the history of
Cookham
and presenting this interpretation in a way that visitors and community can actively enjoy and engage with.
Chrissy has also embraced the social benefits that Connecting
Cookham
can bring to residents through
VIS-BOX
, such as details of local events, important contact details for
Cookham
and vital travel information points such as map locations and village smart tours initiated at the local train station.
Connecting
Cookham
may well prove to be the show case for the integration of
VIS-BOX
and a perfect example of how the combination of heritage and technology can be effectively integrated to engage, educate and excite community and visitors alike.
