Based at the Centre for Sound Communities, Digital Interns support the collaborations of the Centre’s researchers, working with local groups in Sydney, Nova Scotia, and with partners from across Canada and around the globe. Using the state-of-the-art equipment at the Centre for Sound Communities Studio, Media Lab, Meeting Room and workstations, Interns develop digital collections for libraries and archives; and interactive, media-rich educational materials. They also support the development and delivery of technology-enriched public programming, engaging broad publics by sharing new research knowledge through media-rich publications, online resources, and vibrant social media campaigns.

 

 

Each of the Interns, and the Coordinators who work to support them, are documenting their experiences as they move forward through the project: blogging, providing photos and posting media they create as they progress through their internships. We welcome you to learn more about the activities of each of our interns, by clicking on the links below!
