Contribute your memories to Alda Terracciano's "Zelige Door on Golborne Road", an interactive, multi-sensory installation

Experience this interactive, multisensory installation which explores various aspects of Moroccan heritage and culture. Zelige Door on Golborne Road uses Augmented Reality software by UX designer Mariza Dima and olfactory technologies developed by researchers at Politecnico di Milano to construct a living museum of cultural memories that reflects the challenges of gentrification and communal visions of a utopian space within the city. This digital installation consists of a map of Golborne Road, which has been populated by objects relating to Moroccan heritage and culture, each requiring a different sense to be experienced. It was produced in collaboration with members of the local community who participated in a series of memory sessions with the artist focused on people's everyday life. Visitors can contribute their memories every day between 2-4pm.

This event is programmed by Queen Mary University London, a Tate Exchange Associate and funded in party by the UCL CCHS Small Grants Scheme for £2000.
