Graham Davies is curator of Rhagor (welsh for 'more')- a virtual museum developed for Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales. He began working at the Museum after gaining his Geology degree at Aberystwyth University in 1997. After several roles dealing with computerising and documenting the museums collections, Graham moved on to develop the Museums intranet before taking on his current role of developing a 'virtual museum' for Wales. His interests include utilising New Media technologies to promote the heritage and history of Wales to both new and established audiences. By researching the impact of this data through analysing metrics and user behaviour, he is keen to understand what defines a successful online user experience. A keen photographer, Graham enjoys photographing natural landscapes and nature.
