Submitted by EXARC on Thu, 25/09/2008 - 14:13

It holds among others an article on medieval walls and roofs, linking experimental archaeology and living history in the heritage industry and few articles about the Lofotr Viking Musuem (NO).

Acting out living history should not involve propagating of or flirting with political ideas...

Submitted by EXARC on Sat, 31/05/2008 - 14:44

In EXARC’s opinion, acting out living history should not involve propagating of or flirting with political ideas, especially if these ideas refer to National Socialistic philosophy. EXARC is worried about examples like the German living history group Ulfhednar, who are internationally active. There are several groups with an almost similar name, but this is not about them. Already for a long time, Ulfhednar has stood out for their heavy use of symbols, which are else known from the Nazi Era of the 3rd Reich...

Marketing & Communication workshop in Norway

Submitted by EXARC on Fri, 07/03/2008 - 10:52
From the beginning, Norway had some suggestions to how to proceed, based on experience from other EU projects. The proposal was to strengthen each partners marketing, and create a marketing strategy for the project. This theme has also much to do with the Scottish theme of the dialogue with visitors. Acquiring information about visitors can be vital for marketing, and strategic communication...

3rd generation website

Submitted by EXARC on Mon, 12/11/2007 - 13:03

After 4 years, it was decided to prepare a new website. Not only did the graphic design need work: it was felt important to profile EXARC better: some of the content pages were already managed elsewhere and the EXARC website served as a portal. It was decided that the website should first and foremost inform about the association and its members, and on the second place be a starting point...

Submitted by EXARC on Sun, 11/11/2007 - 10:50
November 7th - 11th, 2007 Autumn 2007, the 3rd liveARCH meeting took place in Sweden, focussing on the dialogue with visitors as well as on “Quality and Sustainability”: a very ambitious concept which will probably be adjusted during the process. It should cover the partner’s needs, especially towards the quality of the product they offer the public and the way they organise this product including the quality of living history groups and events...

EuroREA 4

Submitted by EXARC on Tue, 25/09/2007 - 13:55
2007, EuroREA was transferred from SEA into the hands of EXARC. SEA was still a willing advisor, but EuroREA became the journal of EXARC, where the board had full responsibility, in this case delegated to the editor in chief. In September 2007, EuroREA 4/2007 was published; a bit thinner than in 2006 and progressively popular in content, without losing the high quality in editing and graphic design...
