Final Project Proposal – Blake
Romenesko
The idea I'm most leaning toward is the
People's History of the Twin Ports. Where I would create an
interactive map showing sites linked to local history of the
Anishinaabe, people of color, and the working class. When the user
clicks on a site they will see historical images as well as my own
photography.
Tools-Google maps is the obvious
choice, but I want to look into other interactive map programs. The
long term goal would be to create my own interface like the Dijital
Pasaj project and even make into a phone app.
Timeline plan of action-
This week I want to get in contact
with some people I know. One person I know is well versed in local
labor history, another person knows local history about people of
color. About six months ago somebody did a presentation at the Duluth
Public Library about Anishinaabe sites in Duluth. I think I have the
network to find that person. From there determine sites.
Next Week would be to photograph sites
and organize map.
