Scope and Content
*Diffusion*, a DVD that appears to be a PC video game structured around nuclear physics and Chernobyl. Very little information is present in the case, or online, about this title.
It is feasible, based on information sent from James Acord in his envelope of 28 October 1998, that this was an output of the Imperial College (London) BSc Multimedia Systems joint honours course in Multimedia Systems, course QD300: Authoring for Communication. In this course the students were asked to "plan, design, and develop an interactive multimedia application (CD-ROM) around issues of radioactivity in conjunction with The Arts Catalyst," intended for secondary school children, ages 11–16.
