A Journey into Time Immemorial

“A Journey into Time Immemorial“ is an interactive website, offering users the opportunity to see and learn about the ancient Stó:lō people of Canada. The website transforms museum content into a virtual online environment, which offers visitors infinite ways to explore and enjoy animated scenes from the past. Text descriptions, visual renderings, and photos describe the Stó:lō daily life, and with innovative Flash video content, users are transported three thousand years back in time. This exciting website dynamically loads sound, video characters, and educational content via a customised Flash panorama engine. The website navigation is intuitive, with linear navigation offered as an alternative. Visitors can choose their own path through the virtual Stó:lō village, thereby creating a different experience with each visit. Objects of interest can be clicked on in order to learn more about ancient technologies. In addition to the Flash website, a fully accessible accompanying HTML site is available, in accordance with the strict technical specifications of the Virtual Museum of Canada.
