ARTigo
The artwork images need tagging to facilitate art history studies and to automatically build up an artwork search engine (accessible from the ARTigo platform). The ARTigo gaming platform offers several games presenting a same artwork to you and a co-player. Describe art, style, quality, emotions and get points when you and your co-player used the same tag. ARTigo is a collaboration between the Institute for Informatics, the Institute for Art History and the IT-Group Humanities all three from Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich.
