On the 16th November 2017, the Booth Museum hosted a sell-out late event ‘Uncovering the Muse’, as part of its MUPI relationship with the University of Brighton. This event brought together academics from across the university, whose brief was to investigate the Booth collection and develop a talk or workshop aimed at the public. Our wonderful presenters were: Dr Marcus Winter (Computer Science), Ross Adamson/Digital Storytelling Collective (Media), Susan Diab (Fine Art Critical Practice) and Dr Rachel White (Ecology and Conservation Science).
