Foray into the world of the old Cetate neighborhood<\/b><\/p>\r\n

The participants were able to discover the exhibition at the Maria Theresia Bastion, physically and virtually, exploring the history and literature of the Cetate neighborhood, alongside the allegory of the olfactory sense, which capitalizes on the urban myth about Timi\u0219oara as the city of roses, created in the second half of the 19th century by the activity of the gardners dynasties. They were able to step into a modern transposition of Timi\u015foara traditions, through the period images that reproduce the activity of the M\u00fchle family, one sequence of the exhibition being dedicated to flowers and another to scientific experiments, correlated with the allegory of smell. <\/span>Marius Cornea<\/b>, museographer at the National Museum of Banat, presented the exhibition at the Maria Theresia Bastion to the participants, giving them details and historical stories about the Cetate neighborhood and the story about the rose perfume, which was followed by the experiment carried out by the Faculty of Industrial Chemistry and Environmental Engineering from UPT <\/span>on Odor Analysis for Rose Petals.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/b><\/p>\r\n

A world in a mirror<\/b><\/p>\r\n

\"\"A special intervention during the event was given by Prof. Dr. <\/span>Smaranda Vultur<\/b> \u2013 <\/b>coordinator of the Oral History and Cultural Anthropology Group, collaborator of this edition and the one who contributed to the creation of the memories of the oral history of Timi\u0219oara, through the stories of the past inhabitants of the Cetate district, selected from the interviews conducted by the Group she coordinated. She gave the participants details about the oral history and cultural anthropology group's archive, as well as about the interviews conducted since the 19th century, and about the significance of the exhibition's title <\/span>\u2013<\/b> A world in the mirror.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n

The life of the Cetate neighborhood in Timi\u0219oara was illustrated through the selection of literary texts collected by assistant professor<\/span> Roxana Rogobete, <\/b>stories that<\/span> share lesser-known details about buildings and monuments from Timisoara's heritage.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

This year, we enjoyed the original poems under the auspices of <\/span>Miss Timi\u0219oara,<\/span><\/i> created for Spotlight Heritage Timi\u0219oara, by the well-known Timi\u0219oara poet <\/span>Robert \u0218erban<\/b>, who declared \"I fell in love with Miss Timi\u0219oara at the age of 17, at first sight, when I came here for a literary camp, at the Green Forest. Three years later, I decided to come back and we stayed together. Ever since, both of us have changed, and my crush has turned into love. At times, love turns into poetry.\"<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Web page featuring online stories from the past and the present<\/b><\/p>\r\n

The online and mobile components are in continuous development, the web page <\/span>spotlight-timisoara.eu\/<\/span><\/a> \u2013 with the old and new stories dedicated to the Cetate neighborhood was discovered by the public on a state-of-the-art device - the interactive table exhibited at the Theresia Bastion, presented by Dr. eng. <\/span>Silviu Vert<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/b><\/p>\r\n

Technology-enhanced experiences in the Cetate neighborhood<\/b><\/p>\r\n

At the opening, the first stories contained in the Spotlight Heritage Timi\u0219oara mobile and augmented reality applications were launched, updated with the sections dedicated to the Cetate neighborhood this year - and having multiple functionalities that identify the 18 locations in the neighborhood, presented in several ways: text with information about the location and the memories of the former inhabitants - of various ethnicities and occupations - written in text form, an image gallery - both current and old, video clips and 360-degree images of each location, so that anyone can can create the feeling of being inside the building or in front of the building. In addition, once a user of Spotlight Heritage Timi\u0219oara mobile and augmented reality applications is near the Cetate neighborhood and in front of a building, the augmented reality (AR) function recognizes the building and provides information about it. By pointing the phone's camera at that building, anyone will be able to see the old facade of the building superimposed on the current one.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
