PathScape - Audio-Visual Indexing in a Landscape

Mike Leggett is developing PathScape, an interactive multimedia research project. It explores audio-visual indexing forms using a navigation approach developed with a small team of sound and visual artists together with a researcher. With investment from the Australian Film Commission at an initial stage, the project seeks to enable collections to reach a general audience, in disc, installation (interactive cinema) or on-line format. The indexing system can access personal and public narrative documents, (film, video, photographs, recordings etc), the primary objective being to aid collection interpretation using sound and image, with the more conventional text-based indexing relegated to the background as a resource gathering tool. Currently partners are being sought to take the project to a level where the framework can be used as a generic and dynamically defined content delivery system.
