In search of Oldton

A little post about a project by Tim Wright. You’ll see a lot more done by him here on Adromag the next couple of days, because he’s the kind of guy I’d like to meet in person. First: In Search Of Oldton. Tim himself described it:

With ‘In Search of Oldton’, I plan to work together with people - online and offline - to build up digital evidence of a town that never really existed.

And that’s exactly what it is. He started of by sharing his memories and soon other people started linking their images, sounds and thoughts to the non-existing town of Oldton.

The project also became a radio play on BBC4 and triggered a roadshow throughout the UK.

Thanks to Stuart for telling me about this at The Meeting Of Minds.
