============================================
The goal of the PATCH2012MM workshop is to gather researchers and

interaction, arts and heritage curation, interface design and user
modeling, in order to showcase novel applications and discuss opportunities
that grow from the connections between users and multimedia systems in the
cultural heritage domain.

describe work in progress, empirical results, position statements, and
demonstrations of existing systems.
