The conference Digital Media and the Challenge of Safeguarding Cultural Heritage: New Ways of Knowing About Our Past will focus on how new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are already playing an important role on the understanding and preservation of cultural heritage, bringing new possibilites and ways of communication.
What are new technologies doing to inform us about the past? How are they applied? Which controversies arise? How do we make them accessible to the public? These and other questions will be adressed with the help of our panelists, who will bring their expertise from European and American corporations.
This panel will be moderated by Dr. Alexander Nagel, Research Associate at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History, originally from Berlin, Germany, that has lectured worldwide and actively supports the work of communities on preserving heritage of Yemen, Greece, Iran and the Middle East.
This event, part of the Protecting Our Heritage series run by the European Union Institutes of Culture and its network in Washington D.C., is organized by SPAIN arts & culture, the cultural program of the Embassy of Spain across the United States, with the collaboration of the Embassy of Italy, the Italian Institute of Culture and New York University (NYU) Washington, D.C.
