ArcheoVerso

Faire: Rome

Maker: Centro di ricerca DigiLab - Sapienza Università di Roma

 

"ArcheoVerso" stands as a digital design solution for cultural institutions that want to be present in the metaverse, making full use of all the tools and potential, thus not limiting themselves to just a virtual presence. If for some time, all over the world, they have been welcoming VR/AR technologies as an opportunity to involve different audiences in new ways and on new platforms, the horizon of the digital universe is much broader than the simple three-dimensional re-proposition of own collections or paths. The interaction with the sphere of social media - and therefore the complexity of the relationships between physical users - makes the metaverse a frontier to be explored in its impact with the real world: ArcheoVerso will analyze its relationships and declinations from the point of view of cultural institutions, evaluating economic sustainability and technological and digital extensions that make it possible to expand its offer and capacity to involve the public.
