Filling the gaps of the past with digital tools
The question
Can digitalisation allow us to rediscover stories and perspectives?
Watch
Summary
Yes. In fine arts and conservation-restoration, digitalisation is used to find the missing parts of objects and to reconstruct the past and its stories. History is full of gaps, especially where no documents survive. Digitalisation combined with artificial intelligence can help fill those gaps and let us learn far more about past events.
With digitalizing and artificial intelligence, we can fill the gap.
