Burge, Caitlin; Takats, Sean
University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg
We explore we designed software in response to the challenge of black boxes. Can we create a research environment that is self-documenting, as well as encourage critical reflection? Are black boxes inevitable, do they serve a necessary purpose, or is it time to move beyond this stale metaphor?

By using the large corpus of “visual testimonies” in the form of artworks created during the Holocaust, this project aims to generate an engaging and immersive experience, transforming 2D images of artworks into 3D models.
