Site Specific Artwork
Site Specific Artworks are created to exist in a particular location. They can be sculptures, earthworks, paintings, installations, performances, and now, digital and mobile experiences.
Perhaps the most famous example is Richard Serra's Tilted Arc, a public artwork that inspired a legal battle. A brief account of that here.

For our purposes, site specific work deals more closely with the space that it is made for. It should in some way draw on and relate content from that location. Here are a few examples:
Copper Giloth, Labyrinth of Fables / Le Labyrinthe des Fables, GPS enabled walk/game, 2015.
Eben Kling, Kirkland Ave. Project, Mural, 2011.

Testing with 3D objects
Hello!
I did a few tests with 3D objects and Aurasma just to see what would happen!
It is a bit finicky.
The first one I tried was with my laptop, I put a gif on it using Aurasma. Aurasma alerted me that it may not work so well due to the trigger image not being very unique, but I haven't had really any difficulty getting it to work. I figured it would work well because it's flat.
I would like to get a video of it at some point to show that it works even if the laptop is moved or closed, etc. But currently just have a photo of it in the app!
He dances!
For the second, I tried a water bottle, something I figured wouldn't really work. It works, but it's finicky. You can't turn it, and you have to have it at the same view as I took the photo for the trigger image. Being a sort of at level view. If you try a bird's eye view of it or worm's eye view, or turn it much, it won't work. Still an interesting test though!
Also, kind of like the laptop, I tried using an image on a cover of a book as my trigger image, but this time I overlayed a video with sound on top of it. It worked out just as well. And can be viewed below or with the actual book.

Emma Gallant Auarasma 2 location
Okay, so my second Aurasma is actually a set of three that are located in the Central Cemetery. The triggers are the Butman St entrance, Lucy Larcom's stone, and Rachel Thorndike's stone. These are the many trigger images in which you can use:
This is a tentative map of our route through the cemetery:
(Please note: It may take a while to find, nothing in the actual cemetery is labeled, other than the stones, so it takes a bit of guesswork to find everything)
These are all the links that can be reached though the Auras:

(it seems as if they are no longer selling the t-shirts)
