Making local culture accessible, visible, and alive in the digital environment.
Many cultural materials have already been digitized, but they remain fragmented across museums, archives, and individual databases, especially in the regions of Russia. It is difficult to find them in one place, access them, or connect them with one another. The solution is a digital platform for researching local culture that unifies photographs, artworks, documents, maps, and stories, linking them to specific places, people, and time periods. Users can explore the past and present of their cities, learn their history through the eyes of the residents, and contribute to the collective collection with their own materials, gradually forming a regional archive.
Classroom
Target audience includes students and young professionals in art, design, and culture who require visual and archival materials for projects; city residents wishing to preserve family photos and share memories; and architects, urban planners, and researchers studying urban environments. All groups share a common need to find, study, and connect materials related to specific locations. The initial priority audience will be students and creative professionals who regularly need such research for their studies and work.
