iMmersive gamEs for Museums as vehicles to Engage visiTOrs in Empathetic reSponses
Harnessing technologies such as virtual and mixed reality to provide highly personal experiences that demonstrate empathy is becoming more widespread. The EU-funded MEMENTOES project will design three immersive video games each intended for a real (rather than virtual) museum. The museums are recognised internationally as Sites of Conscience – places of memory that remember and preserve even the most traumatic memories to allow visitors to make connections between the past and its power to create positive change. The games will address visitors’ demands and instil in the general public a greater appreciation for museums engaged in memorialisation – the process of creating public memorials – and transitional justice.
