This site was built to highlight the oral histories of merchant mariners post-World War II. The client wanted the site to be easily usable by people uncomfortable with technology and to visually display audio clips in multiple browsing patterns.

The site’s homepage auto rotates between a map, tag cloud, and list of oral history clips. The simple interface keeps content easily accessible.
