Reviving Victorian Virtual Reality: A Toolkit for Restoring and Disseminating Historical Stereographs in Contemporary VR Laboratory for Experimental Museology, EPFL, Switzerland This paper presents a computational toolkit for disseminating historical stereographs in virtual reality (VR). Combining automatic restoration, augmentation, and visualization, the toolkit addresses systemic barriers to large-scale dissemination. It enables immersive engagement with digitized cultural heritage, bridging historical stereoscopy and contemporary VR to revolutionize access to 19th-century immersive media. Digital Games in Museums: Constructing a Framework of Playfulness University of Leicester, United Kingdom This paper explores how digital games and playfulness foster visitor engagement in museums, drawing insights from five digital interactive exhibits and visitor experiences across different cultural backgrounds, presenting the first conceptual framework of playfulness in museums. Digital Humanities and Environmental Sustainability at the British Library British Library, United Kingdom This paper will look into the British Library’s commitment to embedding environmentally sustainable digital humanities practices and technology choices, highlighting staff-led initiatives, a Climate Change Strategy, and collaborations like with the Digital Humanities Climate Coalition. Future plans involve a 2025 training programme and a sustainability guide.
