EVA Berlin
The EVA-Conferences are an international forum for users, developers and other stakeholders in electronic documentation and communication technologies for the cultural sector. With venues in Berlin, Florence, London, Saint Petersburg and Jerusalem, the conferences present ambitious digitization projects dealing with cultural heritage, network-based research and mediation collaborations as well as information technology services for museums, libraries and archives.
The focus of the Berlin EVA-Conferences is on current projects that are application-focused and technologically advanced. The conference, workshop and accompanying exhibition present examples of successfully implemented innovative approaches to projects of this kind. They address new technological opportunities enabled through network based exchange of information, electronic documentation and digital reproduction as well as focusing on issues associated with methods and licensing. The discourse between memory institutions, technology providers and public administrators stimulates cooperative collaboration.
Particpants are:
- Museums, libraries, archives and their associations
- Ministries of education and cultural affairs, museum and heritage departments, and other cultural institutions
- Research institutes for image processing, computer graphics, information and media science
- Providers of multi-media and image processing systems, hardware, software, online information services and databases
Fifteen volumes of conference papers have been published so far in print and are successively being made available online and in OPEN ACCESS on arthistoricum.net - ART-Books. The print editions from 1996 until 2015 can be acquired via the contact address.

Konferenzband EVA Berlin 2019. Elektronische Medien & Kunst, Kultur und Historie: 26. Berliner Veranstaltung der internationalen EVA-Serie Electronic Media and Visual Arts
“BASED ON TRUST! Culture in Virtual Environment” is the focus of this year’s conference. It alludes to the oscillating field of tension that has been opened up between data identity and the real presence of cultural heritage. Digital transformation has made available the collection objects in cyberspace. Concerts and performances are transmitted as datastreams, and education and learning is continuously improved by the use of the VR. Digital telepresence technologies, thus, expand the visibility of cultural heritage and generate new contexts, narratives and perspectives.
But how can we represent credibility and uniqueness of the material evidence of the objects in digital data streams? What technical requirements are associated with the creation of plausible and citable scenarios and atmospheres in VR? The claim «Based on Trust» refers to all areas of the «virtualization of the museum» in 2D, 3D, sound and video formats as well as in e-installations, explorative VR applications and AI. Authenticity and credibility are not self-evident at all in digital media. They require complex attribution processes and data curatorial expertise. The Berlin EVA Conference deals with these topics at the interface between memory institutions, public administrations, technology providers and information scientists.
Konferenzband EVA Berlin 2018. Elektronische Medien & Kunst, Kultur und Historie: 25. Berliner Veranstaltung der internationalen EVA-Serie Electronic Media and Visual Arts
The 25th EVA Berlin Conference [Electronic Media & Visual Arts] bridges between material culture and virtual representation. The concept of «Digital Twins», transferred into the field of Cultural Heritage, is currently changing our practices of curating, scholarly documentation and communication. Digital Twins provide broader access to the collections and allow for innovative narration and visualization concepts. E-installations and streaming services give duration to the performative arts or turn music into a perfect listening experience in the digital concert hall.

The digital transformation of cultural heritage is a generative and co-creative process. It has long ceased to be the reproductive digitization of collection objects, but rather the imprinting of authentic experience equivalents. Telepresence technologies and three-dimensional visualizations enable a virtual re-enactment of the collections in documentation and mediation. Not as a digital twin, but as a documentary and functional enriched digital unicum, the object leaves the museum space and unfolds its own virtual, smart and shared heritage its own, auratic effectiveness in the Internet of Things, in social networks, on gaming platforms or in research and science. In addition to broader access to cultural heritage, new forms of circulation of knowledge and the differentiation of public media environments are on the digital agenda of the GLAM institutions.
The 24th Berlin EVA Conference 2017 is the forum where these topics are developed - at the interface between memory institutions, technology developers, information scientists and public administrations.
