🎙️🌟 INTERVIEW: AURORA Project and the BMN As one of the AURORA Project partners, the BMN team recently shared insights on how using AURORA technologies can positively impact the heritage sector, the ways to mitigate potential risks, and the pressing issue of countering illicit trafficking of cultural heritage. -- Joining this compelling conversation on behalf of the BMN were: 🔹Aida Vežić, BMN Secretary General 🔹Azra Bečević Šarenkapa, BMN Steering Board Member and Senior Conservator at the National Museum of BiH 🔹Jove Pargovski, expert on the documentation and digitization of cultural heritage, working at the NI Institute and Museum Bitola -- 💬 Jove Pargovski, #BalkanMuseumNetwork “The idea in AURORA is to replace or augment the traditional method of applying inventory or accession numbers by using ink that’s only visible under certain lighting conditions. In that way, numbers or marks can be read and "recognized" using a mobile phone and application. In addition to its primary purpose of protecting objects from theft and forgery, this technology will also help improve inventorization and documentation of museum collections.” -- 📌 Read the entire interview at the link, and be sure to follow the future updates on the AURORA project! 🏛️✨ . . . #AURORAProject #EUHorizon #HorizonEurope #Interview #IllicitTraficking #ProtectHeritage #CulturalHeritage #HeritageSector #AuroraTechnologies

For a long time, Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums (GLAMs) have worked towards becoming more digital. However, the road to digitalization can be long, and it's not just about building digital storage units, but about streamlining processes and operations. At FotoWare, we're already working with several organizations within this industry - such as the White House Historical Association and the Munch museum - helping them manage their digital assets and collections through automated workflows and effective use of metadata.  In this article, you can read about seven key features of how DAM solutions like FotoWare help GLAMs speed up day-to-day operations and boost productivity: https://lnkd.in/dGPezs68

https://lnkd.in/esBMiBp4 How to Collect, Curate & Preserve Museum Digital Assets iBase News & Insights Many people associate museums with ancient artefacts or at least replicas. But working behind the scenes, it’s clear to see that things aren’t at all old fashioned. Most museums use the latest technology to help them to store, organise and protect valuable assets. In addition to the countless collectable items in your museum’s possession, you likely have thousands of important digital files. From videos of events and exhibits to photograph collections, safe and secure storage is paramount. Read on as we explore why digital asset management is essential for museums.

SNEAK PEEK Yesterday, members of the Slow Looking Club got an exclusive first look at the 10 Questioning Practices featured in my upcoming book, The Art Engager: Reimagining Guided Experiences in Museums. We even used one of them, The Perspectives Triangle, to explore this photograph by Imelda Schoutens. Questioning Practices are intentionally designed structures that foster engagement and inquiry in guided museum experiences. Tailored specifically for the museum context, they offer adaptable ways to spark meaningful discussions around art and objects, encouraging observation, critical thinking, and personal discovery. The 10 Questioning Practices in my book are versatile, flexible, and can be adjusted based on the object, audience, or programme goals. What makes them unique is that every time we use a Questioning Practice, we infuse something of ourselves into it - whether it’s our personal style of asking questions, facilitating discussions, or creating a welcoming atmosphere. I can’t wait to share all 10 with you in just a few weeks!
