DIGITISING HERITAGE IN AN ERA OF CHANGE

The digitisation of heritage safeguards the treasures of humanity beyond their physical presence. The introduction of digital technology into creative techniques and mediation strategies enriches the public experience and opens up infinite possibilities for visual artists and museum professionals. It fosters links between creativity and innovation, between art, heritage, science and technology. As we enter a pivotal period, rich in boundless opportunities, but also in dangers and uncertainties, it is crucial to examine the potential of digital technology for African heritage. But it is just as important to open up alternatives to artificial intelligence by giving a voice to other representations of the world. This is the aim of this meeting, which will examine the issues and challenges of digital technology for museums on the African continent.
