Recife: Stories and People. Rebuilding and Sharing the Past to Reflect on the Present

This article is part of the ongoing work entitled “Recife: histórias e pessoas”, which seeks to intertwine the city’s past with its present, providing the coexistence between individuals and facts from different times to help in the understanding of territory from its cultural heritage. The literature review process, the first findings and the general context of the research are indicated. Two neighborhoods of the city, Santo Antônio and São José, are presented as they will provide inputs through their history and their resi- dents who will be worked on in augmented reality techniques, virtual reality, and other narratives, such as photographic, audiovisual, and infographics, techniques that will support reflection on the process of local urbanization.
