Abstract:
The MirrorLAB project, nearing completion, seeks to employ innovative tools to enhance Rome s public museum heritage within aristocratic palaces, focusing on their historical and morphological relationship to the city. The project aims to expose cultural content through inter-scalar, inter-modal ICT, making it homogeneous and operable by comparison and aggregation, using a geodatabase for cognitive data and a technological system for disseminating meaningful data within narratives. The initiative is built on three actions: documentation of aristocratic palaces housing art collections from the 16th to 18th century, prototypical representation of existing or virtually reconstructed palace interiors, and the design of a cultural and touristic circuit of publicly-managed palaces-museums, enhanced with augmented reality technologies. To explore the relationships between buildings and their historical occupants, case studies linking museums to past residences are examined. This includes the Boncompagni Ludovisi collection, selected for its typological eloquence, historical stratification, and relational character.
