This dissertation analyzes how knowledge is produced by the different actors working together at the intersection where arts, humanities, and the new media meet. We are presented with two complementing voices: one building theory of how art, facts and artifacts are produced, and the other reporting the process that contributed to those insights—the collaborative design effort of creating the Raisio Digital Archive, which gathers representations of archaeological finds and assorted material culture of Southwestern Finland, from the periods of the late Iron Age to the early Middle Ages.
