At Art of Multimedia, we’re passionate about crafting custom interpretive experiences, not platforms.
That's why we've developed an innovative digital interpretation solution—designed specifically to empower heritage custodians of heritage sites, historical societies, museums, First Nations communities, parks and gardens, local councils, and other cultural stewards to create engaging, self-guided audio walking tours.
Our system combines professional storytelling flexibility with sophisticated web technology, providing your visitors with native app experiences accessible on any modern device with a browser.
Hear the Story. Feel the Journey.
Here’s how interpretive audio can elevate the experience for your guests.
Engaging storytelling
Bring your stories to life with rich narratives, soundscapes, and oral histories. Whether it’s the voice of a local elder, historical re-enactments, or ambient sounds from the past, audio makes every step of the journey more vivid, immersive, and memorable.
Greater accessibility
Audio interpretation is inclusive. It supports visitors who are vision-impaired, have difficulty reading, or speak other languages. By offering multiple language options and a hands-free experience, your site becomes more welcoming to a broader audience.
Preserving oral histories
For communities with deep cultural or historical roots—especially First Nations or multicultural communities—audio provides a powerful, authentic way to share and preserve stories in their original voice and spirit.
Flexible and user-paced
Visitors can be guided or explore at their own rhythm, choosing their own path and listening when and where they like. The experience becomes more personal, less rigid, and far more engaging.
Real-time context
With audio cues delivered at key locations, visitors receive insights exactly when they need them—without relying on signage. It’s intuitive, context-rich storytelling that flows naturally with their movement through the space.
Sustainable and low-impact
Because it’s delivered through visitors’ own devices, there’s no need for intrusive infrastructure. It’s a modern, eco-friendly approach that respects the integrity of your site’s landscape and history.
Digital Interpretation That Works — For You and Your Visitors
Easily updated, brandable, and offline-capable — perfect for modern heritage interpretation. Explore some of the features.
Web based technology
Our app uses cutting-edge web technology that works across all mobile devices without the need to download or update native app SDKs as devices change. This ensures maximum accessibility for all your visitors.
Bespoke design
Every tour is tailored for your specific storytelling needs, and visitor experience goals. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions – your heritage deserves better.
Location-enhanced experiences
While tours provide a linear-based experience, using geolocation technology can help visitors orient themselves and easily find other stops on their journey.
Unmatched flexibility
With a user content Management System, you can create new tours, modify existing ones, add or remove stops, and even temporarily unpublish and republish tours for special events.
Offline capability
Should your site have limited or no connectivity, visitors can download tour content at your visitor centre or another location prior to tour commencement.
Future proof investment
Our system is designed to evolve with your needs. Add multiple language options, AUSLAN versions, or other specialised tours as your requirements change.
Payment processing
Looking to provide a paid experience? We can integrate any of the major payment gateways directly into the app, allowing visitors to purchase tour access right on their own devices quickly and securely.
Analytics
Gather visitor insights by integrating your own Google Analytics account or let us develop a custom dashboard to help better understand your visitor behaviour and tour performance.
Accessibility focused
Audio transcripts come standard to enhance accessibility, and the system supports images and video media to create truly immersive experiences for all visitors.
Easy Content Management
Our user-friendly CMS puts you in complete control of your tours. Without any technical expertise required, you can:
- Create entirely new tours for different areas or themes.
- Modify existing tours by adding, removing, or changing stops.
- Include rich media like audio narration, images, and videos.
- Temporarily unpublish tours for special events and republish them later.
- Add multiple language options or specialised accessibility features.
- Update content in real-time as your site or interpretation strategy evolves.
