The bell tower is certainly one of the architectural elements that best characterize the Italian landscape. The BELL pilot aims to provide tools and methods, through which historical bell heritage can be better known and put in relation with other parts of cultural heritage. In Polifonia’s latest YouTube video, pilot leader Elena Musumeci explains that a digital interface will enable users to navigate through the connections between bells sound, tangible heritage (bells, bell towers) and intangible heritage (sound practices, oral transmission of knowledge among communities and bearers of tradition).
