The 105th Stockholm Seminar on Japan: Virtual Museums and Visualization of Cultural Heritage
Digitalization is rapidly changing the foundations for many industries and sectors of society. This brings new possibilities to communicate and transform activities. UI and the Stockholm School of Economics invite you to a seminar on Virtual Museums and Visualization of Cultural Heritage.
The cultural and creative industries are one such sector using digitalization for development. This Stockholm Seminar on Japan took stock on how digitalization is used within museums as a mean for visualization and communication into the future with a presentation of joint work in Sweden and Japan.
The Virtual Museum is a project with the aim to develop innovative digital technologies and new methods to create and visualize art collections and cultural heritage.
