Invisible Ground: Augmented Reality, Storytelling and Immersive History
Invisible Ground is a podcast, telling the stories of the familiar places and people in southeast Ohio which might not be always visible, but are part of our daily life.
Mindy Drayer and Marshall McPeek, co-anchors of NBC4 Today Weekend Edition, featured the Newark Earthworks and Flint Ridge on the July 20th segment of Where in Ohio are Mindy and Marshall? Snippets of video from their visit appeared in the 5:00, 5:30 and 6:00 PM broadcasts.
It as a pleasure showing them around Newarks Great Circle. They seemed genuinely impressed with the scale and sophistication of the ancient monumental architecture.
They also went to Flint Ridge where Bill and Pat Weaver served as their hosts and had them throw a spear with the atlatl and make a shell necklace with a pump drill. This was great publicity for these amazing sites!
Here’s a link to one of the segments on the Newark Earthworks:
