ALT Pink background with yellow stage light coming down across a quote by James Smith: "The PubPub community was the place where we realized that we could not just showcase what had been created but also the process.... It lets us call out digital objects all across the internet, as well as writing original blog-style content. PubPub is... a really powerful swiss army knife."
✨Our latest #CommunitySpotlight is on Creative Connections, @PortsPastPres! ✨
This community uses PubPub as an interfacing tool for a broad-ranging creative project, featuring port communities in the British Isles and the artists who define them. help.pubpub.org/pub/szn08thk…
While describing @PortsPastPres, Martin Crampin calls out all the different types of media and their documentation that were created as part of the project.
ALT Quote by Martin Crampin: "The website documents [the live exhibitions], which people can see in perpetuity, and that seems important in terms of legacy.... We also produced an anthology of the work, ... [have] the set of postcards, and one of our writers produced a book of folk tails."
An interesting component of this hybrid project - very rooted in the ports in Ireland and Wales while curating an online presence.
