Today, we witness two generative forces of digital media culture meeting flexible, open, easy-to-use digital technology and large-scale social communication, sharing of in- formation, knowledge and media representations. These two forces are equally important in media convergence and divergence, but also tightly coupled. This paper traces the root of 'metamedium' concept, developed in late 70s by Alan Kay, to show that at the beginning two crucial aspects of digital revolution were intentionally connected within the project of creating 'personal dynamic media'. Thinking of digital technology as a 'material without qualities' - as a open to any transformation, mutation and extension metamedium - has significant impact on new media discourse. Not only because it reveals essential difference between 'old' and 'new media', but also because it exposes solid ground for practices od media hybridization, innovation or - using Lev Manovich notion - process of 'deep remixability'.

Comparative musical science, later ethnomusicology, was born and, in the positive sense of the word, developed in close relation to the historic development of audio-visual recording technologies. Especially its music analysis methods went through an important process of improvement in the last third of the 20th century in connection with the fast development of digital and later information and communication technologies and, above all, with the intensive improvement of technological devices which are capable of visualising the physical parameters of sound signals. This paper describes the background of the most important areas of ethnomusicological research of folk musical instruments in Slovakia in the context of the international scientific discourse. It deals with the forms of application of digital technologies in ethnoorganological research, the methodological issues associated with the sound recording of musical performers and, finally, with the specificities of the analysis of instrumental music sound records with an emphasis on the current research of playing styles. Digital technologies play a key role in all research stages leading to the understanding of the vocal essence of traditional music. This relates to several distinctive theoretical and methodological issues, a selection of which is discussed in the final part of the text.

This papers analyses the theoretical foundations of the process of digitizing and their implementation in the ongoing digitizing of Slovakia‘s cultural heritage within the scope of the OPIS Programme (Priority Axis 2) Development of institutions dedicated to preserving memory and the restoration of their national infrastructure. The paper provides an overview of the existing national-level projects currently implemented in the field of culture, examines specific aims of digitizing and the advantages to providing wider access to digitized collections. One of the most demanding projects, the Digital Museum run by the SNP Museum in Banská Bystrica, is described in greater detail.
