This upcoming project in Cyprus uses 3D technology to recreate the Enkleistra of Saint Neophytos and the figure of Saint Neophytos. By extending the idea of a “digital twin” to a “memory twin,” this project will provide important insight on how we should not view digitization as just a way of copying what’s in reality to the digital world. Instead, producing something in the digital world is a creation in itself, even if the content is the same as the physical world. This means that, as DH practitioners, we should also rethink our intention in creating digitized projects and ask ourselves what does our digital work do that a physical work cannot.
