HapticSOUND aims at creating an analysis, documentation and demonstration system for traditional musical instruments at the Cretan Ethnology Museum (CEM), which will engage visitors in a personalized experience of transmittal cultural knowledge in an active, pleasant, and creative way. The proposed system can act as a bridge between the audience (visitors) and the cultural sources drawn upon (historians, folklorists, musical instrument makers, musicians, etc.), contributing to the understanding, dissemination and preservation of both tangible and intangible cultural heritage in the field of the traditional Cretan music.
