Bastille's Story｜HKSYU's Metaverse Initiative: Bringing Digital Rebirth to the Centuries‑Old Cheung Chau Jiao Festival
The Cheung Chau Jiao Festival, a century‑old traditional event, remains deeply rooted in the hearts of Hong Kong people. Given its significant cultural value, Hong Kong Shue Yan University (HKSYU) has created a virtual-reality version of the festival, preserving this intangible cultural heritage in the digital world. During the five‑day, four‑night festival, the project research team took over 7,000 photos and hundreds of short videos, launching the project “Metaversing Intangible Cultural Heritage: Documenting, Transmitting and Promoting the Cheung Chau Jiao Festival in Hong Kong.”
