'Visual Narratives: Projection Mapping as a Tool for Cultural Preservation in Lagos' by Eguvwe M Yugbovwre

The 'Lasgidi Streets' project stands as a groundbreaking immersive experience that masterfully integrates projection mapping technology to celebrate and preserve the vibrant culture of Lagos, Nigeria. Set within a creatively configured 'U'-shaped space, the project uses dynamic visual storytelling to bring the city's rich history and bustling contemporary life to an international audience.  

Interactive touchpoints powered by MakeyMakey, and engaging animations developed through tools like MadMapper and Adobe After Effects, enrich the visitor experience, offering a hands-on approach to cultural education. 'Lasgidi Streets' not only highlights the effectiveness of modern technology in cultural narration but also sets a benchmark for how cities can maintain their heritage in the digital age. This project serves as a model for cultural preservation, demonstrating the potential of digital technologies to transform public engagement with history and heritage.
