Roam: navigation instructions 

Navigation in "Roam" is simple.

Each page is comprised of three components. The first (1) consists of a photographic view with a brief description. To move forward, click on the top of the image. To turn around 180 degrees, click on the bottom of the image. At times you will be able to click on (a) a person to get a close-up and set of questions for her or him and (b) an item in view to get a close-up and explanation. This is more common in views of people and items you will encounter when you to the sides while roaming.

A set of indicator panels (2) allow you to explore the sides of the street and comprise the second component. These panels either indicate what people and/or objects you can interact with (simply click on the descriptor to do so) OR allow you to face 90 degrees to the left or right in order to move down a perpendicular street. In this example, you can find, on the left of this view of the end of the bazaar, a sign for a tailor's shop and an opportunity to meet an Arampur resident. On the right you can view a cloth store, enter a mosque, or look down a street which, if you choose, you can also enter.

Finally, an orientation map (3) allows you to determine your general position. A red arrow indicates to place and direction you are viewing in the photograph. Click where indicated in order to return to this page OR click on the map itself to obtain the large-scale view of Arampur. Use the back arrow on your browser's tool bar to return to the roam view you last viewed.

Roam on!
