Video in Vorlesungsaufzeichnungen mit informatikfernen Inhalten am Beispiel Archäologie

We report on a long-term cooperation between computer science and archaeology which led to new archaeological insights and new challenges in computer science. In consequence of this cooperation a Roman mansion (the Villa Urbana in Heitersheim near Freiburg) was modeled based on the excavation using methods of computer graphics. As a result a movie, approximately 5 minutes long, was rendered describing a round tour through the building. Images and the movie were integrated into a telepresentation which was recorded using a note-taking method and transformed into a multimedia document. It turned out that standard techniques in computer science are often not sufficient when using new media in domains such as archaeology. Especially, new techniques for inter-stream synchronization of media are
