At the HKU CommonCore Student Learning Festival, HKU students from the course #CCHU9080 – Dead People’s Things: #Excavating the Past with #Archaeology showcased an #immersive #VR experience that brought past sites to life. By creating detailed 3D models of #ancient monuments, the students invited visitors to step into the past and explore human experiences through the lens of material culture. This #interdisciplinary project combined archaeology, digital media, and storytelling to examine how objects shape our understanding of our past and identity. The VR experience not only highlighted the emotional and ethical dimensions of preserving “old things,” but also encouraged participants to reflect on how the tangible world around us connects our past with our present and future. The event perfectly embodied the spirit of the festival—bringing together #creativity, scholarship, and innovation across disciplines.

They aren't #comparable.
The #remains of the two Indigenous women are, firstly, not even certain to be in the #landfill; they're merely suspected to be there. Second, if they are there, they've been there quite some time, and are therefore significantly deeper, which does make #excavating much more #dangerous. Third, they don't know with any degree of #certainty which section of the landfill would contain them.
It's dangerous, impractical, and expensive. But a nice story.
