Abstract

Digitization has been recognized as effective means to safeguard cultural heritage,simultaneously producing a significant body of data resources within the GLAM sector. Digital curatorial innovations in the museums have created tools to enhance accessibility,interoperability,and interactivity of different archives. Meanwhile,recent efforts have embarked on capturing the living facets of intangible cultural heritage. This article outlines state-of-the-art projects while spotlighting the novel frameworks of experimental museology and computational archives. It aims to identify the advancements and gaps in the existing conventions,in addition to opportunities for transmitting intangible heritage through embodiment.

Intangible cultural heritage
An intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is a practice, representation, expression, knowledge, or skill considered by UNESCO to be part of a place's cultural heritage. Buildings, historic places, monuments, and artifacts are cultural property. Intangible heritage consists of nonphysical intellectual wealth, such as folklore, customs, beliefs, traditions, knowledge, and language. Intangible cultural heritage is considered by member states of UNESCO in relation to the tangible World Heritage focusing on intangible aspects of culture.
Digital preservation
In library and archival science, digital preservation is a formal endeavor to ensure that digital information of continuing value remains accessible and usable. It involves planning, resource allocation, and application of preservation methods and technologies, and it combines policies, strategies and actions to ensure access to reformatted and "born-digital" content, regardless of the challenges of media failure and technological change. The goal of digital preservation is the accurate rendering of authenticated content over time.
Archive
An archive is an accumulation of historical records or materials – in any medium – or the physical facility in which they are located. Archives contain primary source documents that have accumulated over the course of an individual or organization's lifetime, and are kept to show the function of that person or organization. Professional archivists and historians generally understand archives to be records that have been naturally and necessarily generated as a product of regular legal, commercial, administrative, or social activities.
