This project addresses theoretical and practical discussions and approaches emergent from digitally enabled advances in audience user experience in the field of museums and cultural heritage. Specifically, it seeks to engage in and further international and interdisciplinary debate around difficult heritage, complex memory and associated ethical and methodological considerations arising when digital technologies are utilised by cultural heritage organisations to develop learning and participation applications. New technologies are increasingly commonplace, however, more needs to be explored in terms of understanding the diverse and complex learning spaces that these open up and by exploring how those spaces and interactions are evaluated. The project critically explores both the physical and virtual space(s) of the museum/ gallery and its objects, narratives, and emergent shifts in expected (and unexpected) usage in order to further best practices and foster new research agendas on an international scale. The network will use specific recent, ongoing and planned examples and initiatives from across the UK and S.Korea as case studies for discussion. For example, it will engage with ongoing and future initiatives at NML's International Slavery Museum, exploring the shift to online learning and digital exhibitions, as well as the collections relevance to S.Korea. In the case of South Korea, case studies will explore digital exhibitions at Art Sonje Center relating to the Demilitarised Zone in Korea, as well as other examples which explore the representation of complex memory, for example collaborative work on a virtual reality exhibition around forced labour under the Japenese occupation. Across all of these, there will be a critical exploration of inter- and transcultural aspects of practices of (re) presenting, curating, and narrating complex memory and identities by sharing current practices framed around learning and participation. This funded network is therefore crucial to ensure a multi-faceted collaborative approach that understands impacts on both the local, national and the global scale.The network builds on and significantly expands existing relationships across the three institutions of the Universities of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores and Sogang, Seoul, and their cultural partners. By capitalizing on and strengthening these with the inclusion of experts in the field, the key impact and uniqueness of this network is that it will revolve around international academic experts, stakeholders, sites and key cultural organizations, to scope and shape innovative practices in the area of memory studies, museum learning and participation, and explore the potential of evaluation frameworks which cut across sectors and disciplines, shaping approaches that can positively impact the (re) presentation of, and critical debate around, difficult memory, nationhood, identity and belonging.

该项目致力于博物馆和文化遗产领域观众用户体验的数字化进步所产生的理论和实践讨论和方法。具体而言，它旨在参与和进一步的国际和跨学科辩论，围绕文化遗产组织利用数字技术开发学习和参与应用程序时产生的困难遗产，复杂的记忆和相关的道德和方法考虑。新技术越来越普遍，然而，在理解这些技术开辟的多样化和复杂的学习空间以及探索如何评估这些空间和互动方面，需要进行更多的探索。该项目批判性地探索了博物馆/画廊的物理和虚拟空间及其对象，叙述和预期（和意外）使用的紧急变化，以进一步促进最佳实践并在国际范围内促进新的研究议程。该网络将使用来自英国和韩国的具体最近，正在进行和计划中的例子和举措作为案例研究进行讨论。例如，它将参与NML国际奴隶制博物馆正在进行和未来的计划，探索向在线学习和数字展览的转变，以及与韩国相关的收藏品。以韩国为例，案例研究将探讨在Art Sonje Center举办的与韩国非军事区有关的数字展览，以及其他探索复杂记忆表现的例子，例如围绕日本占领下的强迫劳动的虚拟现实展览的合作工作。在所有这些，将有（重新）呈现，策展和叙述复杂的记忆和身份的做法的跨文化和跨文化方面的批判性探索，通过分享围绕学习和参与的当前实践框架。因此，这一资助网络对于确保了解地方、国家和全球范围内影响的多方面合作方式至关重要。该网络建立在利物浦大学、利物浦大学约翰·穆尔斯大学和首尔大学三所大学及其文化合作伙伴之间的现有关系的基础上，并大大扩展了这些关系。通过吸收该领域的专家，利用和加强这些经验，该网络的主要影响和独特性在于，它将围绕国际学术专家、利益相关者、遗址和主要文化组织，确定和塑造记忆研究、博物馆学习和参与领域的创新做法，并探索跨部门和学科的评估框架的潜力，形成能够积极影响（重新）呈现困难记忆、国家地位、身份和归属以及围绕这些问题进行批判性辩论的方法。
