Remixing and repurposing cultural heritage archives through a collaborative and AI-generated storytelling digital platform

Abstract

With the digitization of archives, fragments of cultural heritage are migrating to dedicated platforms and made available in curated experiences that rely on the curators’ work. Polariscope proposes a collaborative storytelling platform to share, visualize and co-create collective memories. It aims to gather citizens and institutions to promote rich digital experiences through interactive and narrative visualizations around meaningful cultural events. The project proposes a solution assisted by Artificial Intelligence (AI) able to generate automatic stories based on these archives. The development methodology and the architecture model of the integration of AI tools are presented in the paper. The paper also presents some promising preliminary results of user testing to achieve such a goal, based on the development of an interaction protocol with GPT 3.5 for the creation of stories.
