Throughout the project, the partners engaged with the local youth to inspire interest in the cultural side of cemeteries through investigative visits, symbol research and creation of interesting routes through cemeteries via the use of a mobile apps & QR codes. The dance videos inspired by prints were to be tagged to QR codes in routes through cemeteries, accessible via the use of a mobile apps. Music and dance for the project Symbols was based on the work of printmakers.
