For about eighteen months now, I’ve been working with my department colleague Andy Davies, and Dr. Maeve Marmion from Chester Business School, on our overlapping areas of research, focusing on the intersections between Human-Centred Design, Immersive Experiences, Digital Heritage and Heritage Tourism.  We presented a poster at the 4th International AR and VR Conference at Manchester Metropolitan University in June 2018, based on our work earlier that year to test a shortened version of Jake Knapp’s Design Sprint methodology, using a digital heritage application as a case study.  The poster was well received, and we were asked to contribute a paper to the book of conference proceedings.  Since last year, we’ve been busy developing a number of related Digital Heritage projects, based on some of the sites mentioned in the poster, and also some others in the Chester area.  More on these very soon!
