Here Be Dragons in Kota Kinabalu!
27 January 2025My role as Curator of the SE Asia Museum at the University of Hull is getting busy and exciting!
We re-opened the Museum on 23 October with a well-attended event at which Chris Awre, the University Librarian, Prof. Terry King, the head of the Centre for SE Asian Studies at the University of Hull until 2003, and I spoke about the Museum’s past and future.
The SE Asia Museum has recently been awarded an Arts Council grant through the Humber Museums Partnership to create new storyboards, information panels and captions for the Museum, which will be installed at the end of next year. We also have exciting plans to work with Prof. Yang Jiang, our new professor of Immersive Technology at Hull University, to create VR experiences of the Museum.
