Abstract:
The presentation will share the JMSC's experience in deploying digital media for content creation, dissemination and preservation.

The presentation will discuss in particular the recent 1911 photo exhibit which has generated significant media and public responses; and the Kunqu project, a pilot effort to digitize the Chinese traditional theatre for global dissemination.
