“Recontructing the Games of the Reconstruction”
Tom Van Aken, co-lecturer at Univeristy of Ghent, Belgium, has started a project to reconstruct biographies of each of the competitors at the 1948 London Olympics. At London1948.org,visitors are invited to contribute information about these competitors. In addition, the site is following the Olympics Games that took place 60 years ago, day by day. This is accompanied by photos and video material, such as a video of the men’s 100 m final.
