ITinHeritage

Today, heritage and cultural areas can aspire to integrate digital technologies previously reserved for high-tech industries, in order to discover, conserve and enhance their heritage, in harmony with current uses.

These technologies offer another dimension and new entry points to the heritage, relaxing temporal and spatial limits and increasing the possibilities for creating and exchanging knowledge. Far from supplanting classical mediations and the interactive relationship that they establish, they seem to accompany them.

The new digital devices that heritage has gradually taken hold of are numerous. The possibilities offered by artificial intelligence aided by open data, semantic web, virtual reality, retro engineering, etc. are vast. They give rise to exciting research projects.

But digital technologies are not only at the service of heritage, they are themselves a heritage. Our research project Museum’IT (Museums of Information Technologies) aims to safeguard and promote the heritage of digital, this big science that permeates our entire society.

In this context we are organizing the first edition of the ITinHeritage seminar.

Our aim, beyond a state of the art of the relations between heritage and digital technologies, is to bring together researchers from the Humanities and Computer Sciences working on these themes and to offer them a space and time for exchange.

The seminar, which will take place on June 5th and 6th 2023 on the Grenoble campus, will be hybrid and the oral presentations, in French or English, will be followed by discussions, in order to question the technologies, uses or impacts at stake.

The Museum’IT team:

Pr Christophe ROCHE (Univ. Savoie Mont-Blanc, France), Pr Pierre MARET (Univ. Saint Etienne, France), Pr Marie-Christine BORDEAUX (Univ. Grenoble Alpes, France), Stéphane BELLIN (Univ. Grenoble Alpes, France), Ilaria TORRE (Univ. of Genoa, Italy), Micaela ROSSI (Univ. of Genoa, Italy), Elisa BRICCO (Univ. of Genoa, Italy) and, Caroline DJAMBIAN (Univ. Grenoble Alpes, France)

will be pleased to welcome you to ITinHeritage.
