With the ever increasing use of computers, visualization is used more and more. Powerpoint-fatigue is a well-known fact. There’s a general feeling that supportive technologies can be useful and effective in education, however those outcomes are often not achieved. Consequently people start to look for alternatives: movies, animations and infographics, have become common-practice. These are all powerful and valuable tools, also in education. It is very important though to ask what type of tool to use, for which kind of learning and to which purpose. In this article we attempt to derive a taxonomy which will help to make sound choices, so that visualization can be used effectively.

In the past 30 years, a hitherto unknown pictorial world of the early Neolithic has become known in Urfa and the wider region. The transition from the Palaeolithic to the Neolithic was not only associated with a fundamental change in the way of life and economy, but also with a media revolution. Life-size sculptures made of stone were an extraordinary craft, artistic and social innovation. The material, themes and size of these sculptures were inextricably linked and represented permanence, masculinity and monumentality. In the further development of the Neolithic, images of humans, but also of certain animals, played an important role in the farming villages. On a larger worldwide scale, the question of whether the paintings and sculptures played a role for all or only part of the peasant societies will be discussed. The Neolithic period worldwide is not only a time in which plant and animal domestication occurred and agricultural societies represented a revolutionary break from hunter-gatherer lifeways. The question is whether the transition to the Neolithic was connected everywhere, not only in Eurasia, with a production of images that were adapted to the achievements of the new mode of production. The aim of this session within the World Neolithic Congress is to evaluate different iconographies and their material culture aspects from Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic bearing communities and evaluate the ideological aspects of art against the background of the socioeconomic basis of these communities and vice-versa.

In an era where the Internet has become a ubiquitous feature of cultural heritage institutions, there is a need for such institutions to go beyond mere superficial adoption of digital technologies and trends if they are to adequately fulfil their public and preservation prerogatives. This paper looks at the Tate institution’s use of social media and digital strategies as case study of an institutionally transformative response to this changing techno-cultural context. This paper aims to show, through theoretical substantiation, how Tate’s use of digital and social media as decentralizing and non-institutional platforms for public discovery of their digitized collection manifests changes in their institutional attitudes towards an ever-changing techno-cultural landscape. This paper thus places a necessary emphasis on ‘what’ needs to change if heritage institutions are to thrive in the current context, rather than to merely offer a ‘how to’ digital policy evaluation, or assessed model for emulation, as papers on this subject are inclined to do.
