PART. 04
Read the text. Answer the questions.
1. How does digitisation make ancient art interesting to the modern audience
2. What are the benefits of the digital projection of the Dunhuang Caves
Digital techniques, such as animation and 3D projection, bring the artwork to life.
People who can't travel can still see the caves; the projection has interactive features that make the artwork come alive; there is less damage to the caves; viewers can zoom in and see the paintings and
sculptures in more detail.
Do you agree with the author's ideas What are your reasons
I agree with the author's ideas.
Digitising ancient art, like the animated "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" and the 3D projection of Dunhuang Cave Paintings, makes ancient art more engaging and accessible. It allows people worldwide to appreciate the details of these artworks without physically visiting, while also protecting the originals. This combination of old art and new technology is a great way to preserve and promote cultural heritage.
