About DHASH

Cultural heritage embodies the identity of community and it is integral part of everyday life (Zerbi and Mikolajewska, 2022) Digitisation can be an effective way for “preservation, conservation and enhancement”(ibid) (Khan, Milic, and Vadász 2024). Not only digitsation could transform how the community engage with culture, it also provides access, production, and dissimination to the mass audience and that could encourage and inspire cultural participation, creative involvement. (The Council of Europe: Culture and Cultrual Heritage).

The project introduces three different forms of cultural heritage from various locations and utilises prevalent technologies (3D scanning, drones, and the JUCE framework) to digitize a tombstone, a temple, and the sound of the Sarangi. This project presents a comprehensive method for digitising different forms of cultural heritage, offering valuable insights into the processes of cultural heritage digitisation using diverse technologies, as well as recording and developing metadata to ensure a transparent workflow.
