Narrazione e virtualità: possibili prospettive per la comunicazione museale.

Digital applications and virtual reconstructions for cultural heritage are nowadays widely diffused. In this paper it is particularly focussed their power for dissemi- nation and empowering of the museum experience. Such a topic needs a two faceted analysis: taking into account, on the one hand, the relevance of narra- tive approach, that seems to be the most important factor to spread user's in- terest; on the other, the effort of digital technologies, which may be useful em- powering elements, but don't generally have relevant effects and long life if developed without a specific communication strategy. Museums data, seeming to confirm such a statement, are exposed together with an overview of the available and developing devices, and of their future perspectives as well.
