Welcome to St. Ann's Academy
Victoria, BC, Canada

An Immersive Digital Historical Walking Tour of the 'Occupation of St. Ann's Academy' (Victoria, BC, Canada): Mark 1

(There is an online journal of the 'occupation' which begins 2004, and is current to date, at- http://www.angelfire.com/apes/hatrackman/welcome.htm

There is an eBook version of David Shebib's publishing of said journal (the intro, general tweaks and corrections, and the existence of a few more entries being the only difference between it and the hard copy... the intro is good and can be read in Amazon's preview option- http://www.amazon.com/The-Right-to-Sleep-ebook/dp/B005S4FUTO#reader_B005S4FUTO )


Introduction and Project Overview

Affording the continued access to Google, I hope and aspire for this 'immersive digital history archive' to be an interesting and educational thing.

At least one preset tour and the option to 'free roam' (of a sorts) using 'event-markers' with notes and journal entries, photos, video links and such, allowing for exploration of a many faceted story by whim or precise research.

Without any ado, if this site is going to be fuelled by links we may as well start off with a bang.

Enjoy.
