Today a couple members of our group went to a talk about the slides available at the Visual Resources Centre. This is a room found on the bottom floor of Cavendish next to the weave room. We were shown a range of slides that are available within the collection. This includes collections of past work from the Manchester School of Art as well as many images taken across Manchester starting from around the 1960s.
As well as using the slides available it was also suggested that we would be able to create our own slides for this project if we wanted to. Also looking into old ordnance survey was suggested as an idea so that we can see how Manchester has physically changed over time.
Several of the slides have been digitalised and put onto flicker. http://www.flickr.com/photos/mmuvisualresources/
