What
Through audio and video storytelling, the use of different media and
interactivity we enhance cultural heritage - historical, artistic,
architectural, archaeological and intangible - through its
reinterpretation and re-presentation in a new guise.
Focusing on themes such as memory, territory, community and
identities we create evocative experiences around themes of
collective interest. Manipulating media and playing with reality and
perception we develop multi-layered visual and sound narratives that
open up to new interpretations.
How
Combining interactivity, multi-vision, story fragmentation and space
design Tokonoma members gained over the years a unique experience in
video creation, video installations, interactive video environments,
multimedia experiences and exhibitions, museums and theatre
projects.
Technology and media thus are the means we use to create engaging
experiences, aimed at increasing public participation and critical
sense.
