New Media Applications on Cultural Heritage Assets
Abstract
New media is a relatively new concept for cultural heritage field. New media is usually considered the same as digital media and technolo- gy-driven alternatives. A better understanding of new media concept especially for cultural heritage studies could provide limitless possi- bilities for preserving, monitoring, representation and management of cultural assets. Using digital techniques make it possible to build 3D models, reconstructions, environments of virtual reality of archaeo- logical sites or ancient structures and related cyber games. However, the nature of the object that is “cultural heritage components” of such applications requires collaboration with experts and academics, which specialize in the field of cultural heritage studies. Since, if the applica- tions are not formed involving preservation and conservation prin- ciples, users/subjects of these applications could be easily manipulated and misdirected. Therefore, a conceptual context of new media ap- plications for cultural heritage sites should be created. In this study, the very fundamentals of new media concept were analyzed and the latest trends in new media applications for archaeological sites and structures were determined in order to suggest an appropriate way of understanding such studies for cultural heritage area. It is concluded that nearly all of the latest applications and general scientific approach involves the view merely from the point of technological side.

The objective of this paper is Yalburt plateau which is located 16km north of Ilgin. Height of this plateau is 1300m. There are hieroglyph stone blocks located in the foot of mountain constitutes a pool. This pool was first discovered in 1970 and archaeological dig has been carried out during 1970, 1972, 1973 and 1975. As a result of these archaeological studies, there is a rectangular pool surrounded by the hieroglyph stone blocks with its three sides was discovered. There were no Hittites' remnants found inside and outside of the pool but plenty of ceramics were found from Rome, Byzantine and early Hellenistic era. The total length of hieroglyph stone blocks of the pool is 12.70 m, their thickness is 1.20 m and the width of the pool is 8.30 m. The condition of 18 hieroglyph stone blocks is quite well except a few of them. One tablet describes the family tree of Tuthaliya IV and also describes the king of Hittite's campaign to Lukka lands which consist of Wiianawanta and Pinali countries.
In cultural heritage, the use of ontologies makes the description of artworks clearer and self-explanatory, with advantages in terms of interoperability. The current shift towards semantic encoding opens the way to the creation of interfaces that allow the users to build personal paths in heritage collections by exploiting the relations over the artworks. In the attempt to leverage this multiplicity of paths, we designed and implemented a system, called Labyrinth 3D, which integrates the semantic annotation of cultural objects with the interaction style of 3D games. The system immerses the user into a virtual 3D labyrinth, where turning points and paths represent the semantic relations over cultural objects, with the goal of engaging the user in the exploration of the collection.
This paper presents the initial outcomes of a key scoping study undertaken to explore the role of augmented reality and motion detecting technologies in the context of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) for museums related environments. Initial prototypes are in the form of an interactive infrared camera based application for children to engage with an Aboriginal puppet. This scoping study is unique, as it tries to combine two extremes: the curation of historical intangible artifacts and their preservation through digital intervention. Heritage related intangible content is always restricted because of its non-physical nature and can never be fully embed in an environment like museums and related exhibitions. This paper explores alternative opportunities for knowledge transfer of ICH content that manifest with playfulness in order to elicit a deeper understanding of such intangible cultural artifacts. This study is complementary to multiple disciplines including heritage preservation, museum technologies and emerging interaction design.
The New technologies alter our lives and the way in which we perceive it beyond the imaginable. This further ulterior over is the point in space-time in which coalition of science, technology and art openly combined for the 3rd Cultural Revolution, and for environmentally sustainable abundance. However, this time, the ―Beyond‖ not only explores the dynamic 3D screen, it moves on from the bits to the atoms and incorporates 3D-printing and digital cloud-distribution which combined to relevant scanning or photographic technologies create a virtual environment as a real world. We are entering the central source for current and emerging trends in cultural heritage informatics with new disciplines, sub-disciplines and terminology to emerge. Virtual, cyber-archaeology and cultural heritage to cyber-archaeometry, are matters that are tackled. The virtual archaeology case studies, over the World, as a result of advanced technology emerging from computer sciences, however, stress the naturalistic methodology, challenges digital reconstructions and serious games. There may provoke also harassment and emergence of fundamental hermeneutical questions which serve as the basis of a synoptic and synthetic philosophy that combines art and science corresponding to classical techne, logos and ethos.
The new period that has been called as “Digital Age”, while it is expressing a presure of an hegomonic age by determining most of the social rules by media, on the other hand, that “digital age” shows us a new social transformation by the help of being able to have cheap and useful technologic tools for individuals. Using the tecnology in this way makes for these new type of individuals possible to build his/her own personal envoirment with the new rules for a new community.The Authority is used to turn the individuals into its own silent obeydiences, one can say “Isolated İndividuals”, nevertheless at the same time this “isolated individuals” are used to be in a stiuation trying to gain his own importance in the community and he is trying to make his voice loud against to the Authority by using the technologic tools and equipments. This article, from the aspect of the isolated individual, is going to question the possiblities to change the conditions into his advantage against to this over determiation of the digital age.
From the Publisher:
Into the Image is concerned with the significance of screen and image in contemporary society, and with the nature of our imaginary and psychic investments in visual culture. It considers modern image technologies as means to monitor and survey the world, whilst at the same time maintaining distance and detachment from it. In the coverage of contemporary war, we see most clearly how the world is screened and yet its reality screened out. Into the Image also reflects on the contemporary desire to create an alternative world by means of new image technologies. It asks what is behind the fantasies of migrating into an alternative, virtual reality. Critical of the dominant technoculture, this book seeks to develop an alternative approach to visual culture based in the realities of the contemporary social order. In its exploration of culture and politics in the field of vision, Into the Image acknowledges the continuing significance of the 'old' technologies of photography, cinema and television alongside that of the new digital developments. The crucial issues, it argues, concern the relation of image and screen culture to experience in the modern world.
Given recent military conflicts, terrorism and natural disasters, many cultural heritage sites are increasingly being destroyed. As well, several of these sites are difficult to monitor due to their inaccessibility and remoteness. As aerial surveillance using drones and/or low altitude systems is more common, there is a vast amount of open data now available on social media, which are posted every day on the internet. Many of the videos posted do not include any information on the equipment that was used to acquire the video. Such media can be used to create 3D models and ortho-images of cultural heritage sites in order to monitor and document their existing status. Using open data that is available on the internet, this study used a range of imaging technique to estimate 3D landscape features from 2D image sequences subtracted from video, as well as applied image distortion correction and geo-referencing. The 3D models can be viewed using Google Earth and also be used to create ortho-image, drawings, and digital surface modeling for cultural heritage and archaeological purposes in remote or inaccessible areas. Such 3D models can be used to monitor and geo-reference cultural heritage sites. Social media can be used as a new source of information by archaeologists and cultural heritage experts to monitor and document cultural heritage sites that are in inaccessible areas, due to conflict, terrain or natural disasters.
The availability of intuitive, user-friendly and special- ized software to work with 3D models of cultural heritage artifacts is as important as the availability of low-cost and robust data acquisition techniques for the adoption of dig- itized 3D models in cultural heritage research. As recent developments in D scanning technologies have made the digitization of artifacts affordable; the amount of digitized models available for research increases rapidly. Conse- quently the need for specialized software for cultural her- itage research and practice on 3D models becomes more apparent. The lack of spatial measurement tools familiar to cultural heritage experts in traditional 3D modeling pack- ages motivated us to create a simple, freely available, and extensible measurement tools system, CH Toolbox, which was designed exclusively for cultural heritage research. The proposed system visualizes digitized models of artifacts in 3D and allows the user to analyze the pieces using a space- ball and mouse driven bi-manual interface. We describe here the components of the CH Toolbox system, specificially the virtual tape measure, caliper, rim chart and a surface area estimation tool. Additionally, we present justification for CH Toolbox's bi-manual interaction scheme according to Guiard's Kinematic Chain model for asymmetric human skilled bi-manual actions.
