The Web portal has its public and user / members pages.
In details its usage is presented in the BITE CABM APPENDIX – Procedures, standards and manuals for use of the BITE digital tools (web page and mobile application).
BITE of Art web platform is designed as a communication tool for coordination, networking, application and promotion of the “BITE of Art” and BITE CABM. It is a landing page for all BITE of Art content, published either by the project, or individual cultural operators. Any cultural operators who intent to apply BITE CABM can use this platform. Firstly, by opening their profile page, and then by using platform for its presentation and posting their news, events / exhibitions announcements, videos, photos. Automatically, each post will be publised on the BITE social media accounts.
PUBLIC pages
The focus of the public pages of the website are news and events. The place where all events organised by the BITE network members will be announced and promoted, and their news published. In the events all 360 digitalised exhibitions will be posted in form of virtual tours. The editor of the news and events pages is BITE support team, but the content creators are BITE network members.
The secondary, but not less important focus on the public page of the website is on education – pages BITE podcast and BITE library.
- The podcast is focused on establishing a new channel for education of young people in the field of contemporary visual art and for promoting cultural operators in contemporary art among young audience.
- The library is a place for knowledge sharing and education of 1) cultural operators (motivate them to innovate the way they work in order to be competitive and ensure economic sustainability), and 2) young people about contemporary visual art, and especially about socially engaged art.
Apart from that, at the public page are full list and profiles of the BITE network members and Contact page.
