Anecdotal Cardiff is designed to take you on a journey through a city of stories. You can either navigate the programme using the index page or let the programme take you on a journey through the space by clicking the start button on the home page.
1. Click Start: If you click the start button the programme will randomly select a story for you to start on. On the first page you will see a piece of text, an image and a sound icon. Click the sound icon to hear the story being narrated. As you pass the mouse over the text you will notice certain words are highlighted. Click on a word that interests you and you will start your journey into Cardiff's stories.
As you are reading the texts on show you will notice that you can either peruse a specific line of enquiry by clicking the 'next' button at the bottom of the page or pragmatically follow your nose through the programme choosing to follow a trail of random words.
Each journey you make will be different and unique.
2. Index page: Should you wish to pursue a more controlled examination of a specific topic, for example Snow, go to the index page where you can click on the word 'snow'. This will show every piece of text in the archive that talks about snow.
Information on other sections can be seen on those pages.
