I have just published this paper about heritage interpretation and the use of virtual reality (VR) to digitise a World War II air raid shelter in Malta (EU).
Article Physical, Digital or Phygital? Assessing the Educational Pot...
Every time I work on the subject or read about it I ask myself the the question:
Will digital (digitisation) ever overtake the physical interpretation of heritage? Will we ever consider a digitised version of a place or artefact as good as the real thing?
What is your opinion on this? My paper gives an answer to this question, but it is the near future that I am looking at.
Thanks.
