GIFs have become an important means of creation and communication in our digital society. Brigitte Jansen and Rasa Bočytė from the Dutch Institute for Sound and Vision see GIFs as part of our cultural heritage that needs to be preserved for future generations.
Fun and creative reuse ideas for digital cultural heritage is something we are passionate about at Europeana. Today we speak to Challenge winner Federica Pascotto on the launch of her educational app Wonders about the chaos and constraints of developing an application game.
We spoke to the team behind the award-winning app, Sofija Klarin Zadravec, Digital Library Adviser, National and University Library in Zagreb (NSK) and Dragana Koljenik, Croatian Institute for Librarianship (NSK) about what it takes to bring cultural heritage to life, and their grand plans for new technology developments.
