Griot

Griot is an open-source iPad application that facilitates engagement with a collection of objects (artifacts, artwork, graphs, or anything else that can be represented visually) through annotations (points of interest on the object itself) and stories (related text-based and multimedia content, presented as a series of pages).

The Griot framework requires three components:

1. The Griot software itself (this);
2. A server for creating and serving tiled images (tilesaw); and
3. An interface for loading content and bundling it in JSON format (GriotWP).

Installation

1. Deploy Griot to the directory where you would like it to run.
2. Edit js/config.js to point to your source of image tiles (i.e. your implementation of tilesaw) and application content (i.e. your implementation of GriotWP).
