TL;DR: RestoreVR is proposed, an interactive virtual reality system engaging users to experience Dunhuang mural restoration in a digital tour in the cave and suggests that RestoreVR significantly improves user experience and awareness of CH protection over existing methods.
Abstract: In Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, unique Buddhist murals of ancient China are preserved. Unfortunately, the exquisite murals are suffering from degradation. Experts have been trying to enhance public's awareness of mural protection, but there's no efficacious means to attract interest and popularize knowledge yet. In this paper, we propose RestoreVR, an interactive virtual reality (VR) system engaging users to experience Dunhuang mural restoration in a digital tour in the cave. Based on an online survey with the public and in-depth interviews with five Dunhuang experts, we derive a set of design requirements for generating embodied knowledge and situated experience in VR to bridge the gap between highly specialized experts and general audiences. Accordingly, we design RestoreVR and conduct a between-subjects user study to compare our system with traditional methods. The results suggest that RestoreVR significantly improves user experience and awareness of CH protection over existing methods.

TL;DR: The use of the precious metal has an artistic, aesthetic, political and liturgical function: it is a sign, mark, and symbol of power and authority as mentioned in this paper. But more than just colour, gold is also matter and light.
Abstract: Since paleo-Christian times, gold maintains a close relationship with colour within the church. However, more than just colour, gold is also matter and light. It is heat, weight and density. The use of the precious metal has an artistic, aesthetic, political and liturgical function: it is a sign, mark, and symbol of power and authority.
