The digital revolution fundamentally changed how cultural heritage is
created, documented, analyzed, and preserved. The book focuses on this
transformation’s impact. How must museums and archives meet the
challenges of digitally generated cultures and how does the digital
revolution influence traditional object collection, research, and
education? How do digital technologies and digital art and culture
affect our interaction with images? Leading international experts from
various disciplines break new ground. Pioneering interdisciplinary
research results collected in this book are relevant to education,
curators and archivists in the arts and culture sector and in the
digital humanities.


New Reviews:
Danielle O‘ DONOVAN and Tom LONERGAN in: MUSEUM INTERNATIONAL [ICOM’s
peer-reviewed journal], No. 277-278, 2018, p. 176-177:
“Museum and Archive on the Move provides an excellent synopsis of
current thinking across the field. If you are planning a new museum or
archive, we recommend that you read this book first. In museology terms,
this book also offers thought-provoking aspirations and useful
criticisms.”

Gabriela GALATI in: LEONARDO, December 2018: “The publication provides
an excellent overview on the current issues at stake in museums,
archives and institutions that need to deal with, but also hopefully can
profit from, the possibilities opened by either the digitalisation of
their collections, or the conservation and presentation of collections
of digital art or other media. In other words, it is a highly
recommended read to all professionals in the field.”

Claudia ROTHKAMP in: Kommunikationsraum. Kompendium für Technik und
Design im Raum 02/2017 Digital: „Das vorliegende Buch ist definitiv eine
interessante und ausführliche Lektüre für alle, die wissen möchten, in
welche Richtung die Digitalisierung Museen und Archive verändern kann –
und vermutlich auch wird.“
