在英国康沃尔郡，总部位于阿姆斯特丹的设计工作室Kossmanndejong策划了一场沉浸式多媒体展览，探索了一段独特的历史，展示了当时人们的抵抗和斗争。该展览讲述了发生在南非的第二次盎格鲁-布尔战争(1899 – 1902)和英国集中营的故事，重点展示了女权主义者Emily Hobhouse的激进主义。通过24间连续的视听室，游客可以沉浸在布尔战士、英国士兵和当地黑人的经历中。展览敏锐地捕捉到了战争失控的始末，在所有这些苦难中，Emily是少数几个专注于保护人类而不是破坏人类的伟人之一。

In Cornwall, England, the Amsterdam-based design studio Kossmanndejong has created an immersive, multimedia exhibition that explores the resistance and struggle of a unique historical event. The exhibition tells the story of the Second Anglo-Boer War (1899 – 1902) in South Africa and the British concentration camps, focusing on the activism of feminist Emily Hobhouse. Through twenty-four consecutive audiovisual rooms, visitors are immersed in the experiences of the Boer fighters, British soldiers, and the local black population. The exhibition captures how war spirals out of control. Amidst all this suffering, Emily stood apart as one of the few who focused on preserving humanity rather than contributing to its destruction.

电影体验
A Cinematic Experience

在Stonewood Design设计的“战争房间”(The War Rooms)里，游客们将戴着耳机穿过博物馆，走进每个房间，倾听即时播放的音频故事，这些故事讲述了当地的军事斗争、南非布尔人的文化、黑人在斗争中的角色，以及Emily在英国集中营的人道主义工作。这些故事与动画和视频无缝同步，而灯光则随着时间的推移而发展，使每个章节都栩栩如生，游客也仿佛成为了故事的一部分。在照明箱中展示的原始文物和历史图片进一步增强了这段历史旅程的真实性。

In ‘The War Rooms,’ a building designed by Stonewood Design, visitors walk through the museum wearing headphones. Audio stories begin playing as they enter each room, unfolding the military struggle, the culture of the Boers in South Africa, the roles of the Black population, and Emily’s humanitarian work in the British concentration camps. These stories are seamlessly synchronized with animations and videos, while the lighting is programmed to evolve over time, making each chapter come alive as if visitors were part of the story. Original artifacts and historical pictures displayed in illuminated cases further enhance the authenticity of this historical journey.

贴近人物
Close to the Characters

通过一个普通的英国男人Peter和一个布尔女人Susanna和她的孩子们的个人故事，游客们可以更深入地了解他们在战争期间的经历。随后，人们将在360度视频投影中看到这两个角色。Peter被他的副官强迫烧毁Susanna的房子，而她和她的孩子们哭着求他不要这样做。这一刻是否让他从一个加害者变成了战争的受害者？游客可以自己决定。在另一个房间里，放映着集中营的原始照片，伴随着Emily讲述她在那里遇到并记录的妇女的故事的声音。

Through the personal stories of an ordinary British man, Peter and a Boer woman, Susanna and her children, visitors delve deeper into their experiences during the war. Later, you meet these two characters surrounded in a 360-degree video projection. Peter finds himself forced by his lieutenant to burn down Susanna’s house as she and her children weep and beg him not to. Does this moment transform him from a perpetrator to a victim of war? Visitors can decide. In another room, original photographs from the concentration camps are projected, accompanied by Emily’s voice recounting the stories of the women she met and documented there.

共情和沉浸
Empathy and Immersion

通过场景设计、原始物品、变化的灯光、动画、视频和音频，游客们被引导着一步一步地穿越暴力的漩涡，这场战争消耗了太多领导人和普通民众的精力。通过生动地展示所有观点，鼓励参观者了解双方的行为，引发了他们对战争的思考和对斗争的共情。这次展览突显出在这场灾难中像Emily Hobhouse那样坚守自己的道德准则是多么罕见和困难。她拒绝被暴力或指责所左右，而是关注那些遭受苦难最多的人：难民营中的妇女和儿童。

Through scenography, original objects, changing lights, animations, videos, and audio, visitors are guided step-by-step through the downward spiral of violence that consumed both leaders and ordinary people during this war. By presenting all perspectives vividly, visitors are encouraged to understand the actions of people on both sides, fostering empathy for their choices and struggles. Amid the devastation, the exhibition highlights how rare and difficult it is, like Emily Hobhouse, to stay true to one’s moral compass. She refused to be swayed by violence or blame, instead focusing on those who suffered the most: the women and children in the camps.

对未来的永恒一课
A timeless lesson for the Future

Emily Hobhouse的故事告诉我们，即使在最黑暗的战争年代，具有强烈道德意识的人也能通过坚持同理心和人性等价值观来发挥和平的影响。这次展览强调了这些价值观在冲突时期的重要性，并说明了如果我们不从中吸取教训，历史必然会重演。它提醒我们，Emily的榜样作用是至关重要的，她是未来的有力指南。

Emily Hobhouse’s story shows that even in the darkest times of war, individuals with a strong moral consciousness can wield a peaceful influence by upholding values such as empathy and humanity. This exhibition emphasizes the crucial importance of these values during times of conflict and illustrates how history is bound to repeat itself if we fail to learn from them. It reminds us why it is vital to celebrate and share her example as a powerful guide for the future.
