Publishing street level film archives can lead to some interesting results…
While the Powerhouse Museum have been exploring new uses of high-res images published from the Tyrrell Collection, I’ve also spotted Dan Hill’s montage using some of the film footage published through Sidetracks on Archinect. Peering into the flow of pedestrians and trams on George St in 1906 not only provides insight into Sydney city life before cars, but also illuminates future planning possibilities.
