Abstract

The wide technological development influences comprehensively all levels of culture by altering the configuration criteria and finally the character of modern patterns of culture. The contribution of the digital media in creation and management of cultural content is related both to the field of art and display conveyor, including the museum. Initially, representation concerns the detachment of the artifacts from specific spatiotemporal facts, where they belonged, and their replacement within a physical or virtual exhibitional space. The creation of semantical digital substitutes of the artifacts result in the creation of a new artifact that refers to the without being a copy of it. Representation is a reality interpretation, an intermediation. What exactly do we choose to show in a digital work and with what criteria? We promote one aspect within the framework of an external objective model-or a palimpsest perspective of an older trace? It is exactly this procedure that raises management issues nowadays more than ever.
