Interactive splashback featuring video.

During recent renovations Fingal Cellar Cafe wanted a scenic glass splashback installed as a room divider for their coffee bench. A collaboration between John "Stinker" Clarke and Stephen from Port Stephens Images resulted in a world-first interactive glass splashback featuring a series of videos on the history of Fingal Bay.

There are six splashback panels in total with 5 different stories covering the history of Fingal from the original owners, through to the lighthouse keepers, fishermen and modern-day Fingal. The panels feature a montage of images from historical records through to contemporary images that give a menagerie of Fingal Bay through the eyes of John Stinker Clarke.

Each panel has a QR code which allows you to use your mobile phone to link to a short narrative video by Stinker covering the topic related to the splashback pictures. There are five stories in total and Cafe customers can go back to different parts of the splashback to watch different videos on each visit.
