Description
Summary:Some of the artistic and cultural expressions have an intangible and dynamic representation. UNESCO defines Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) as traditions or living expressions inherited from our ancestors and passed on to our descendants such as oral traditions, performing arts, social practices, festive events. For UNESCO, an important goal is to guarantee the wealth of knowledge and skills transmitted by them from one generation to the next. This paper shows how digital media can be applied for representation and managing ICH resources. First of all, ICH resource was systematized into its essential properties. Later it was created a mapping between ICH properties and digital features. A study case called PAMIN (Heritage, Memory and Interactivity Project) was developed and illustrates how the digital media features can guarantee the preservation and management of ICH resources. At the end, we discuss the results using PAMIN in communities of the city of Joao Pessoa.
