This is a 3D reconstruction of the Bergen Belsen concentration camp, part of the installation “Here, Space of Memory” a collaborative effort between the research group SPECS http://specs.upf.edu and the memorial center of Bergen Belsen http://bergen-belsen.stiftung-ng.de to commemorate the 60 year anniversary of the latter in 2012. The reconstruction has since been updated and extended to reflect earlier historical states.
This video shows a shortened version of the installation with the 3D reconstruction and the historical audio of the 1945 BBC radio report by Richard Dimbleby. That audio can still be heard here.
