Abstract

Open linked data technologies pave the way towards the semantic Web of the future by a) exploiting the abundance in data availability, b) enhancing the continuing application de- velopments in the Web and computer technologies, c) increasing the availability of game engines towards an expansion of techniques and d) bridging culture and education with gaming. In this context, we introduce an innovative and content-dynamic web-based vir- tual museum, which relies and exploits the rich content of distributed web cultural re- sources and supports the creation of custom painting virtual exhibitions for cultural and educational purposes based on gaming technologies.
