Dorchester Ghost Walk
Back in 2009, we worked on a pilot for an interactive ghost tour of our local town or Dorchester.
This was put on the backburner whilst we tried to work out an interesting way to engage the public with the idea of taking tours using their smart phones as a guide.
Since then we have been experimenting with QR codes. These are the strange black and white ‘static’ like symbols you may have seen on posters and ads more and more frequently.
These images can be used with a smart phone and a freely available downloadable app, so that people can take pictures of the QR code and be linked to a number of different types of online content.
With this in mind we have produced the sticker below which we have surreptitiously stuck at the start point of the tour, with a hope that people ‘in the know’ may happen upon it and take this spooky little tour.
As well as a cool thing to do, we are beginning to use these codes more and more in our work, we would love to find a creative way in which to spread your message using them. Get in touch.
