Nick Poole, Chief Executive of the Collections Trust, the professional association for people working in Collections Management (www.collectionstrust.org.uk), will be our opening keynote speaker at Digital Past 2015. He is also on the Executive Board of Europeana, the online portal to Europe’s digital cultural heritage (www.Europeana.eu) and currently represents the UK at the European Commission in the field of heritage and technology.
Nick will be sharing how the Trust has been exploring the use of 3D technologies to open up heritage for discovery and enjoyment. Working in partnership with leading creative 3D agency Inition and heritage organisations in the UK and US, the challenge has been to look past the technologies for their own sake, to how they can be harnessed to further the public mission of those using them.
