The GIFT project

We're proud to share the GIFT Box with you. The GIFT Box is a #H2020 collaborative effort that provides a set of open-source tools and ways of working to help museums offer richer digital experiences for their visitors. Explore the GIFT Box now 👉 gifting.digital

ScannerBox is a free resource for #3D scanning created by @TheOfficialMRL at @UniofNottingham. @Europeanaeu have featured it as part of their focus on 3D in the #culturalheritage sector. Check it out here: pro.europeana.eu/post/scannerbo…

Working with 10 museums from the EU and USA we've developed some practical recommendations to help you excel digitally. From systems and culture to people and understanding, we give you things to think about, to do and to explore further: gifting.digital/organisational… #giftEU #H2020

Never Let Me Go is an app that allows two visitors to guide each other’s behaviour and reflections, allowing them to co-create their experience of art. You can find out more about this, and other playful experiences in museums, here: gifting.digital/never-let-me-g… #giftEU #H2020

@OlgaTerenetska Thank you :) If you check out our website you will see case studies of our design & planning and digital tools - where we've tested them in museums. In the 'ways of working' section you can see outcomes from our work with 10 museums from the EU and USA gifting.digital

@classicbyte Hi Marco, you can test the GIFT App here demo.thegift.app

@GIFT_itu What's the URL to test the app again? #Europeana2019

Artcodes are customisable and scannable markers that let you blend your physical exhibition with digital content. They work like QR codes - except you design the look yourself. Learn how to use them and test how they work in your museum: gifting.digital/artcodes/ #giftEU #H2020

With the Gift App you can share a museum experience with someone you love. It's like a mixtape with objects from a museum. To find out more about this and other open-source digital tools that have been developed and tested in museums, check out gifting.digital #H2020

@DavidHaskiya @Europeanaeu Hey, sorry for the slow response. Which source code are you looking for? For each "digital tool" we intend to have links to the source code in the presentation, but not all the tools have that ready yet. Let us know which part you are interested in and we'll share the code!

@Europeanaeu @GIFT_itu Very interesting! Where is the source code published? Looked for but couldn't find it.
