With the mobile app “ee sweet” you can experience how closely language has been historically related to the built environment. The language and even the number of terms used to describe a condition or a building element reveal much about what was of greater or lesser importance at a particular time and place. You are encouraged to explore the app and learn about architectural terms visually and auditorily. Moreover, the app offers an interactive possibility to share your knowledge. You might know architectural terms in Scots or English that are special and not many people know? Within the app, you can submit new terms and their meanings, as well as inform me of any mistakes you discover. Your information is immediately accessible in a forum and you can view what other users have previously added. “Ee sweet” was developed as part of a master’s dissertation at The Glasgow School of Art and is a pilot project exploring how language can be inventoried as intangible cultural heritage.
I am currently finnishing the M.Sc. Heritage Visualisation at the School of Simulation and Visualisation (GSA). Previously, I completed a two-year M.Sc. in Architectural Heritage Preservation and a BA in History and Art History in Berlin, Germany.
