“Beaming through the Other: Culture(s) as Resource” was a research project within the framework of my START project pro- posal for Greece “CHAPP”. “Beaming through the Other” employs the concept of culture as shared cultural heritage resources. Engaging people from diverse cultural backgrounds (locals, refugees, attendees of the traditional local church), opposes the conventional concept of cultures being in conflict. I used an emotional approach to the interaction between individuals and the traditional church. More specifically, the project consisted of 3 research actions examining mindsets, expectations and the barriers latent in the process of engaging with the church. The first were organized as workshops: a word-based workshop involving locals and an image-based workshop involving refu- gees. The third action consisted of a video-based case study to gauge visitors’ receptiveness to and interaction with a church (the Andreaskirche in Düsseldorf) through an interactive digital prototype of my planned App.
