Visual culture and cultural heritage: VIC-CH a synthesis between digital representation and heritage experience

Abstract

The dissemination possibilities offered by digital technologies provide multiple ways of reading and fruition of the cultural heritage. In order to define a visualization and communication strategy through images, the paper shows some of the results of the ViC-CH Visual Culture and Cultural Heritage workshop, which involved the University of Trento and the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. The graphic elaborations focused on the Library of the Priest Seminar in Brixen; photomodelling, short films with drone shots and virtual visits have been some of the ways of manipulating the image for the animation and realistic visualization of a cultural heritage not easily accessible to date (The paper is to be attributed to Alessandro Luigini for paragraph 1, to Giovanna A.
