Story, education + interest framework

Turn the resource into a useful story

01

Open with the tension inside this evidence: Side-by-side deep-zoom comparison and annotation of archival evidence.

02

Let the reader inspect Mirador; translate what it shows, who produced it and what it cannot prove.

03

End with one action for A1, A2, A3: save, compare, question or apply the source.

Educational payoff

By the end, the reader should understand how Mirador can inform a decision—and where its open-source evidence viewer evidence stops. It adds context while keeping the original source available for scrutiny.

Interest device

Open with a concrete creator dilemma, reveal the source, then invite the reader to test the idea against their own work. The reveal is Mirador, not a generic stock illustration.
