Each video scene depicts a location within the region. Some locations might have more than one video attached to them. For example from a view with a bird feeder in it, the user may have the option of jumping to a close up of that bird feeder.
This is an example of the interface. Areas are observed by the view window in the center, usually playing a looping video of the current scene. Entering a command from the list of available headings on the right will change the view to an adjacent scene. Entering the question mark into the parser brings up the instructions, showing all the possible parser commands. These include commands to save progress, quit the program, bring up options, etc.
