Mapping prehistoric artefacts that were used to process daily staple foods 40,000 years ago

The overarching motivation of the project is titled “Stone Tools as Storytellers: Experiencing Information from Museum Objects” and this project is spearheaded by Professor Laura Longo and fellow co-collaborator Professor Biju Dhanapalan, both established Associate Professors from the School of Arts, Design and Media. The outline of this project is to converge STEAMED (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Education, and Design) research and the humanities to narrate and story-tell the data retrieved from museum artefacts using interactive visualization techniques. An experimental protocol is proposed in this study that balances the limitations of an experimental setup so that sound and reliable data can be retrieved. This is an integral and empowering part of the overarching project because substantial deductions and conclusions can be formed.Bachelor of Engineerin
