Infinite Scotland
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
Infinite Scotland is an exploration of a country’s DNA – one strand is its biodiversity, the living and inert elements it is made of: rocks, insects, animals, plants, soil and fish – the other strand is the culture of the human beings that live in it: the way they celebrate, express themselves, live, play and describe their environment.
We look at how these two DNA strands are connected and suggest the true personality of the country is better appreciated by both, as we wouldn’t look at any other living thing this way.
The title Infinite Scotland comes from one of those joining strands – a poem by Hugh MacDiarmid Our Scotland – where a man reclines on a hillside looking around and seeing only heather and note the multiform variety, the infinite Scotland of species that surround him. We’re all guilty of it – not looking, or maybe not knowing what we’re looking at, or for.
VIEW INFINITE SCOTLAND IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
The app lets you explore Infinite Scotland through a tactile, abstract interface. You can enjoy the beautiful imagery and audio provided to whet your appetite and when you are truly inspired, you can add to Infinite Scotland and input your favourite stories, locations and images, right from the palm of your hand to become part of the community.
Help us make Infinite Scotland the place to come to find out just how special a place Scotland is.
With your help, we can add thousands of photographs and descriptions of Scotland’s infinite natural and cultural diversity.
You can upload images and text about the nature and culture you come across as you travel across Scotland.
Scotland’s natural and cultural diversity is indeed infinite. If you think we’ve missed a bird, flower or creature, then here’s the chance to add it to both our website and app.
Spotted a piece of Scotland’s cultural landscape that should be here? Snap a quick picture or write a short piece of text and tell us and the rest of the world about it.
