Interactive Narratives

The article I looked at this week from the Interactive Narratives website is from the Roanoke Times online edition. The article provides a 3-dimensional graphic walk through of the Taubman Museum of Art, which I can only assume is a museum that is yet to be or in the process of being built in Virginia. Like all the other examples I have used from this site, the article proves what a substantial advantage online journalism can have over newspaper if used properly. The walk through gives a 3-D portrayal of how each room will be constructed, as well as providing architectural information on each aspect of the building, nothing that a newspaper could depict as well with words (and no pictures since it hasn’t been built). There are also videos about the idea behind the museum and its contributors.
