Vortrag


What if we would use modern technology to learn and experience history more holistically than by just reading texts and hearing lectures? Just imagine you would be interested in the pre-human world, and by using the historical ‘Google Earth’ function on your private Laptop (and a virtual reality helmet), you could enter a simulation of a specific place during a specific time of your choice, for instance, dive in a primeval ocean full of ammonites? You could see and hear, maybe some day in the future even feel, a lost historical world, or at least one scientifically validated version of it…

Dr. Anna Lindemann is an alumna of the DK program.
