Co-creating intangible cultural heritage by crowd-mapping: The case of mappi[na]

This article explores the potentials of crowd mapping as a co-creation process of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). It starts from describing the concept and the relevance of the ICH concept; in the second part it explores crowd mapping as a potential environment supporting and facilitating ICH co-creation. The experience of mappi[na] is later described to show how these environments can work: some examples of ICH co-productions dynamics are reported and analysed. Finally some conclusions are driven and some research paths identified.
