Abstract
This article covers the conception and development of Empedia, a new locative software environment for mobile phones specifically designed for expanded archives, documentary and heritage/historical interpretation, using situated and collaborative learning, at resonant and related sites. It will examine our developmental methods employed through a number of workshops for pilot projects, employed specifically to test the reception of rich media assets and augmented reality features in a simple open source user interface and authoring environment for iPhone and browser consumption. The research projects at the Institute of Creative Technologies (IOCT) examined here include: a D. H. Lawrence Heritage Blue Line trail in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire (2009); Riverains, a dramatised history trail in Shoreditch, London (2010); and the use of collaborative documentary in Codes of Disobedience and Dysfunctionality in Athens (2011).
