Interpretation
1. Relate to the audience. “ any interpretation that does not somehow relate what is being displayed or described to something within the personality or experience of the visitor will be sterile” (Tilden 1967). you should try to find out what the people you are talking to know about the site and it’s natural features. You should also try to find out what interests them the most about the site. People tend to relate to information that is directly related to observable features of the land.
2. Reveal information about the topic. “ information, as such, is not interpretation. Interpetation is revelation based on information” (Tilden 1967) to reveal information find a element within the topic that you can put a new spin on, this gives the veiwer a unique viewpoint.
3. Be a combination of many arts. “Interpretation is an art, witch combines many other arts. Whether the materials presented are scientific, historical or architectural” (Tilden 1967) interpretation is a art that combines many other arts. Graphic layout is a art form itself especially when combined with images.
4. Provoke interest in the topic. “The chief aim of interpretation is provocation, not instruction” tilden (1967) catchy titles will grab the attention of viewers
5. Be a part of a greater whole. “Interpretation should aim to present a whole rather than a part” (Tilden 1967) strive to create a overall theme for the area than break it into different sub themes.
