Virtual Memory? Holocaust Remembrance in the Digital Age
(Panel discussion) – 30 Sept, 10am
AR, AI, and Social Media – digital technologies shape the way we commemorate the Holocaust today. But can technology facilitate more inclusive remembrance? How does digital media influence Holocaust education? In what ways can digital tools change the way we commemorate the victims of Nazi persecution? Can digital tools help expose and access complex layers of history? Looking at these questions from an international perspective, we will discuss the profound impact immersive technology has on Holocaust commemoration and education.
