Built inside a modern game engine from an archive of visitor photography, postcards and ephemera at Glasgow School of Art, this meticulous 3D visualisation of Bellahouston Park in 1938 lets you walk through the streets of the international fair and reflect on its impact through a contemporary lens.

The international exposition held at Bellahouston Park attracted 13 million people to Glasgow in 1938 during its six-month duration, yet little physical evidence remains. Today, using an archive of visitor photographs, postcards and ephemera, researchers at Glasgow School of Art have meticulously rebuilt the streets and 100+ buildings that made up the Exhibition as an interactive 3D game.

Join our lunchtime lecture to explore how this digital tool can reshape our understanding of this cultural event, hear about the research and creation of this project and its use in decolonising narratives.
