Digi StoryTeller vs Digital Decumanus

The DIGISTORYTELLER program has been designed as a digital tour, with the help of the digital platform and through mobile devices, in areas and neighborhoods of Attica that received refugee flows, from 1922 (arrival of Asia Minor refugees) to 1973-74 (refugees from Cypriot). Through the application for mobile phones and with the additional possibility of inflation, i.e. the input of data by users, the DIGISTORYTELLER will fulfill a dual role: both the experiential, "emotionally oriented" tour based on carefully selected historical evidence and testimonies and the participation of . audience with additional material and information. The project is completed by creating printed products (postcards, albums, etc.) that can be connected to the digital environment creating an augmented reality effect.

The "Digital Decumanus" app takes you on a journey through the history and cultural heritage of Thessaloniki, offering an interactive way to explore the city’s monuments and archaeological sites. Through photographs and texts, you can learn about the history, architecture, and significance of each monument, as documented by the Ephorate of Antiquities of Thessaloniki City. At the information points, your experience becomes even more engaging through Augmented Reality (AR) technology. Using your device’s camera, you can view 3D representations of the monuments and interact with them. Whether you are a resident of Thessaloniki or a visitor, this app provides a modern gateway to the past and serves as a unique guide to some of the city’s monuments.
