The heritage of Nazi persecution (HNP) is at risk of fading from collective memory as survivors age and pass away. This paper reviews current visual storytelling (VS) techniques and focuses on refining, extending, and adapting existing design spaces for cultural heritage (CH) sites, particularly those related to HNP. Building on previous research, we expand design dimensions related to rich media elements and entity orientation in VS for CH. In particular, we orient the design space to fit HNP narratives and define the concept of visitor-driven, expert- and witness-driven storytelling, thus elaborating on valuable building blocks for VS in HNP. Our analysis includes 24 examples evaluated for accessibility, narrative clarity, and functionality. This work highlights trends, identifies gaps, and suggests opportunities in VS for HNP, ultimately providing a comprehensive framework to engage future digitally native generations with this significant and particularly delicate historical content concerning both victims and persecutors.

摘要

The heritage of Nazi persecution (HNP) is at risk of fading from collective memory as survivors age and pass away. This paper reviews current visual storytelling (VS) techniques and focuses on refining, extending, and adapting existing design spaces for cultural heritage (CH) sites, particularly those related to HNP. Building on previous research, we expand design dimensions related to rich media elements and entity orientation in VS for CH. In particular, we orient the design space to fit HNP narratives and define the concept of visitor-driven, expert- and witness-driven storytelling, thus elaborating on valuable building blocks for VS in HNP. Our analysis includes 24 examples evaluated for accessibility, narrative clarity, and functionality. This work highlights trends, identifies gaps, and suggests opportunities in VS for HNP, ultimately providing a comprehensive framework to engage future digitally native generations with this significant and particularly delicate historical content concerning both victims and persecutors.
