The interdisciplinary project RFB02 "Immersive City Scripts: Inscriptions and the Construction of Social Spaces in Miletus (Asia Minor)" investigates how inscriptions structured public spaces in the ancient city Miletus and Didyma. Part of the project is an immersive virtual reality application of the Milesian theatre, where you can explore and experience the inscriptions with the help of reconstructions, different light settings and agents in the virtual space. The project belongs to the Research Field B “Inscribing Spaces” of the first phase (2019-2025) of the Cluster of Excellence “Understanding Written Artefacts”.
