摘要

Exploring the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in museum settings, this study finds concepts for a digital and inclusive mediation station giving context to a Renaissance sandstone altar at the Staatliches Museum Schwerin. Today, many museum visitors have less theological knowledge and come from diverse, often non-Christian, backgrounds. Thus, understanding and appreciating historical artworks and artefacts becomes more difficult. Therefore, exploring ways to present cultural heritage in a manner that is understandable, playful, and inclusive, regardless of the audience’s origin or beliefs, is necessary. Through a collaborative week-long workshop involving communication design students, conceptual frameworks and prototype designs were iteratively developed and evaluated, laying the groundwork for further refinement and subsequent integration into the museum’s permanent exhibition.
