Here @Lucy_Worsley tries out our first @UofGMiM prototype for an in-depth, 360 look at some remarkable objects related to #MaryQueenOfScots! “So the only question left is, what will you put into your museum?”. No surprise - Burnsiana #RobertBurns for me! @GlasgowBurns @UofGMiM
Lucy Worsley@Lucy_Worsley

I've created a brand new museum …in the Metaverse! @meta Quest 3 and @UofGlasgow’s ‘Museums in the Metaverse’ project has digitised thousands of artefacts so you can see and handle them from home. It's pretty cool! Visit 'my' museum here👇#ad
