Project description
Telling the story of values
From human dignity to freedom and from equality to human rights, these values form the basis of the EU. The EU-funded VAST project will study European values across space and time. Using advanced modelling methods and techniques as well as digital tools, VAST will review how values have been expressed. It will study values in ancient Greek tragedies and how they are appropriated by today’s theatrical plays and audiences. It will also study values in works of 17th century natural philosophy and how they are received by experts and visitors to science museums. VAST will create a collaborative platform to assist scholars, researchers, artists and educators to curate, reuse and repurpose such material. By providing a storytelling application, the project will allow users to create their own stories and remix the content.
