Biography

Eva Pietroni is an art historian, a conservation specialist of Cultural Heritage and a musician with a degree in flute and a special experience in Baroque music.
Since 1998 she has been developing research activity at CNR, in the Institute of Sciences and Technologies of Cognition and in the Institute of Technologies Applied to Cultural Heritage, Virtual Heritage Lab, (now merged in ISPC Institute of Sciences for Cultural Heritage), where she has a permanent position as researcher since 2010. She is a scientific responsible of projects of national and international interest at the Virtual Heritage Lab of CNR ITABC. The ambits of research and application are referred to the study, documentation, communication and valorization of Cultural Heritage, using the digital interactive technologies, with particular attention to the sector of real and virtual museum, museum technologies and virtual environments. She works in the digitization and virtual reconstruction of the archaeological and potential ancient landscapes, of urban and monumental sites and artistic artifacts. Different types of data, acquired directly on the field or coming from interpretative studies, are elaborated and integrated in VR ecosystems, where different levels of visualization, behaviors, multiuser dynamics, gesture based interaction are implemented, together with novel approaches in storytelling, where different paradigms converge, coming from Virtual Reality, Theatre, Cinema, Serious Games, Holography, Mixed Reality.
