After 7 months and more than 5,000 visitors who digitally travelled through Timisoara's history and enjoyed unique cultural and historical explorations, the immersive cultural space Cazarma U - Digital Culture Space, organised by Spotlight Heritage Timisoara as part of the International Festival of Digital Culture and Heritage will come to an end this month!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Spotlight Heritage Timisoara project, part of the national cultural programme \"Timisoara - European Capital of Culture in 2023\", occupied a space for 7 months and transformed it into a special immersive experience, combining the past with the present and crossing the boundaries of time with the help of virtual and mixed reality digital technologies, offering unique opportunities for the public to discover Timisoara from another time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Art, history, culture and heritage have been at the intersection of the digital and the real, tangible world over the past 7 months. The festival was a unique opportunity to discover Timisoara's history and art through advanced digital technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality or even through interactive quiz games<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until 30 November, the public can visit digital installations such as Patterns of Poetry<\/em><\/strong>, by artist Marius Jurca (13m10j), is an interactive installation with custom software through which you can discover Timi\u0219oara through poetry and colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who are eager can try the digital applications made by the students of Politehnica University Timisoara, where they can visit and explore the city, becoming virtual tourists of Timisoara, through virtual reality glasses or try their luck in solving the mixed reality game, which lets you interact with 3D scanned heritage objects, learning their story in a unique and interactive way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Our experience, Spotlight Heritage Timisoara, in the Cazarma U - Digital Culture Space, integrated in Sculpture after Sculpture was unique, a symphony between art and technology, where heritage was brought into the contemporary, through digital technologies to tell unique stories through innovative artefacts. The show \"Heritage under the spotlight - a leap into freedom \"was an exciting moment that brought to life the recent history of the city in the courtyard of the U Barracks. We were delighted that the apps were used by many officials and thousands of visitors from different countries, hundreds of children and young people, who discovered the city, but also the highly topical digital technologies. Personally, I thank the Triade Foundation, our partner, for the openness shown, the UPT student volunteers and the cultural mediators who were the bridge, especially during the weekend, between the digital and the human. \"<\/em>, Diana Andone, director of the e-Learning Centre (CeL) of Politehnica University Timisoara and coordinator of the Heritage in the Spotlight Timisoara project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The U Barracks - a historical space<\/strong> multifunctional brought to life by passion<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

From May to November 2023, the U Barracks was the venue for the event after SCULPTURE \/ SCULPTURE after<\/strong>, organised by the Triade Foundation, marking the creation and development of a cultural space dedicated to the connections between people, art, technology and heritage. Under this umbrella event, the U Barracks became the place for the projects organized by the Polytechnic University of Timi\u0219oara, where generations of young students, passionate about technology and art, together with national and international experts and artists could freely express themselves and present Timi\u0219oara as it is: a vibrant city, full of creative minds and passionate souls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the U Barracks, since its opening until today, events and projects have been organized and can still be visited such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
