91自拍 Self-Guided Tour Application Ongoing Project
91自拍 has a rich, interesting history, culture, and ecology. To promote awareness and bring the city鈥檚 story to life, an interdisciplinary team is preparing a series of narrated and graphically depicted themed tours. Historians, ecologists, and the public will be consulted in developing each tour. The first tour focuses on Civil Rights history, and future tours will explore topics such as the history of Civil War, music and film production, architecture, and 91自拍鈥檚 ecology. The themed tours will be housed in a smart phone application allowing users to visit the sites and hear the history at their own pace.
