Interactive digital observatory on the cultural identity of Italo-Argentine heritage

The contribution discusses the little-known topic of Italo-Argentine cultural heritage. The data gathered during the numerous studies performed so far have served as the basis for a Scientific Observatory. Its goal is to promote knowledge of the material and immaterial assets testifying to an integrated cultural process between the two countries as well as to highlight the relationship between Italian and Argentine culture during late twentieth-century mass immigration when Italians actively participated as designers, builders, entrepreneurs, businessmen, and teachers. All the data has been classified and is now being disseminated using a new archival and distribution medium: a visual, participatory experience present in public areas and the urban landscape.
