Sequencing server for hilbert-gallery.
This is a server process that executes a Hilbert Gallery timeline controlling the global timing. It is designed to be used with the hilbert-gallery app.
The Lively Exhibition system allows fast and dynamic curation of exhibitions from videos and photos donated to a museum by their community. Museum staff can easily assemble an exhibition by selecting images from the system’s collection and placing them on different screens in the space.
The system empowers the museum community to participate in the creation of exhibitions. They can donate images easily through a website, even from their phones during a visit.
The project was developed for an installation at the Fasnachtsmuseum Schloss Langenstein.
This package is part of the project museum4punkt0 - Digital Strategies for the Museum of the Future, sub-project Kulturgut Fastnacht digital (Lively Exhibition). The project museum4punkt0 is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media in accordance with a resolution issued by the German Bundestag (Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany).
