The Prisons Memory Archive has recorded 175 interviews and walk-and-talk recordings with those who passed through Armagh Gaol, the Maze and Long Kesh Prison during the 30 years of the violent conflict about the constitutional status of Northern Ireland. The range of participants in the PMA includes prison staff, prisoners, visitors, teachers, chaplains and probation officers. The testimonies have been grouped by theme to aid navigation e.g. release, education, coping, visits. The PMA is an ongoing project and new interviews are being added to the site. The website also provides a filmography of feature films and documentaries which deal with prisoners’ experiences.

This site presents videos of academics from various disciplines, talking to camera about their interests and research. The aim is to communicate research in a way that is accessible to the wider public.

Amongst the disciplines currently represented on the site are Architecture, History, Philosophy, Sociology, Finance, Fashion, Film Studies, Management and Planetary Sciences. All content is free to view but there are various Licensing options for use of the content beyond the platform. A simple idea, well executed.
