EDT transmedia exhibitions
Creative Europe European Digital Treasures project resulted with three transmedia exhibitions. The second one: Exiles, migratory flows and solidarity has brought together the Spanish State Archives and the State Archives of Hungary, Norway, Malta and Portugal, along with ICARUS (Austria) and the Munster University of Technology (Ireland). This exhibition is the outcome of the European cooperation, a clear example of the combination of the capacities, heritage, diversity, value, and inspiration that gathered participants to create narratives that combine different technological tools for meeting our past through multiple channels.
