Digital Cultural Museum "KAMEOKA VIRTUAL HISTORIA"
"KAMEOKA VIRTUAL HISTORIA" is a metaverse space that recreates historical and cultural resources such as traditional performing arts, festivals, customs, and nature from all over the city, including cultural assets owned by the Kameoka City Cultural Museum. Participants can experience the history of the region by collecting historical materials scattered throughout the city, set in the streets of Kameoka from the Edo period, including the Kameyama Castle tower and palace, which can no longer be seen today. There is no need to install an app or anything else, and anyone can easily access it from their own device.
There were three particular issues surrounding Kameoka City Cultural Museum:
1) Due to the amendment of the Museum Law, digital archiving of museum materials has been added to the list of museum activities.
② Kameoka City announced the Kameoka City Digital First Declaration in 2021.
3) There were concerns about the lack of PR for the main building among young people.
"KAMEOKA VIRTUAL HISTORIA" does not simply digitally archive cultural assets, but is designed to provide a highly immersive and satisfying experience as an activity that transcends time and space by focusing on a realistic and high-quality worldview. Furthermore, unlike metaverse spaces that aim to encourage interaction between participants, this design adds a story similar to a quest-type game. This allows visitors, including young people, to enjoy the experience for long periods of time even when they are alone. It is also used as a learning tool in educational settings.
