All About life

I was curious about how the National Palace Museum in Taiwan promote this old painting.I like the flash that they made:http://www.npm.gov.tw/exh96/orientation/flash_4/index.html

People can move the pointer to see the panoramic panting in a comfortable and easy way. The three animations are with high quality (from right to left: rural area, urban area, and palace), but I think if they have brief audio explanation will be better. People might want to know what people of all levels of the society do at that time. I was wondering if it can be more interactive. And then I found the 2D Hotpot and the 3D animation(I believe he original one is superior) . I personally think they did a great job! Here are the links:
