Catalogue # DROG-034

This innovative interactive CD-ROM is a compilation of 10 songs with fascinating documentary material on hard-rock mining in northern Ontario. Awarded 1st place in the interactive category at the 1996 New York Exposition of Short Film and Video, this is arguably the first music CD-ROM to incorporate well-researched information on an interesting topic outside of and yet related to the featured band.

The songs, which are a mix or country, rock and folk, have been described as evocative and moving. Each one is linked with stories about mining life in Northern Ontario, and the CD includes such intriguing features as a map of the mines which links to a database of mining-related deaths searchable by name, company or date. The CD, which was produced by a group of graphic artists, is highly innovative and is accessible to anyone with a 486 or low-end MAC.
