Emotion and Communicability in e-Culture Applications

  • Conference paper

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNISA,volume 7546)

Abstract

Culture is a complex phenomenon and as such should be studied from a systemic paradigm in order to integrate its multidisciplinary components as well as to take into account its evolutionary dynamics. One of the issues in this field is the loss of cultural identity and the obliteration of its characteristic traits as a result of globalization and technological advances. Today e-culture applications are resources that contribute to solve this problem since they allow the promotion and mass-spreading of cultural heritage by means of the Internet. However, there are still questions to be resolved regarding the design of such applications. This paper aims at the implementation of an emotional design and the use of language for optimizing communicability in e-culture web systems. Methodologically, it is a case study of the culture of a Northwestern region in Argentina.
