central to Spanish culture, it just pops up everywhere. It's like a major
artery or spinal cord for Spain," said professor John Dagenais, who
spearheaded the 4-year-old virtual cathedral project. Using writings of the
Middle Ages inspired by the pilgrimage, Dagenais said he was able to develop
more of "an itinerary than a syllabus,"</FONT></SPAN><SPAN

enhance the Santiago de Compostela model, Dagenais has independent-study
students in Spain collect data from the cathedral each summer. Last year, Reid
was part of a group that recorded ambient sound. Armed with digital equipment,
Reid and seven other students simultaneously recorded sounds throughout the
chapel that now play in the UCLA theater.<BR>"The sounds [in 1211] would have
just blown you away," Dagenais said. "It was noisy, with conversations in many
languages and music from pilgrims who came from different
countries."<BR><BR>You're back inside the cathedral, walking down the center
of the pewless building. Above is a barrel-vaulted ceiling the length of a
football field. To your right, on the second floor, is an open gallery where
pilgrims stay.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT
