Welcome to the Coventry Rebuilt Time Machine!
So far, the Coventry Rebuilt project has been shared through a series of short YouTube videos. I will continue to do this, but the ultimate aim is to develop an interactive walkthrough, similar to that of a role-playing computer game. In the distant future, this may develop into a VR experience and lay the groundwork for a holodeck experience (when holodecks are a thing).
Before I took a break from the Coventry Rebuilt Project, I made significant progress building the platform. Once I’m up to speed, I will start small with the Picture House (silent cinema) that existed on Smithford Street in the 1920s. The workflow will be: Historic research -> model -> texture -> film -> add to Time Machine.
I’m not sure when/how/where the Time Machine will be shared. In the meantime, I will keep you posted on the main developments by adding to this blog and posting updates on Facebook.
