Interactive Architecture Based on Contextual Awareness and MOOCs for the Preservation and Management of Traditional Vallenato

This article presents the design and development of an interactive architecture oriented toward the management of traditional vallenato, a musical genre recognized as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Architecture combines the principles of contextual awareness and the use of massive open online courses (MOOCs) to face the current challenges of preservation, dissemination, and teaching of this cultural expression, threatened by commercialization and the loss of its traditional roots. Through a modular structure, adaptive technological tools are integrated to capture, process, and use contextual information, personalizing learning experiences and strengthening the link between communities and their cultural heritage. The proposal consists of several functional layers, including context management, user profiles, educational resources, and a persistence unit, each designed to ensure the interoperability and sustainability of cultural data. In addition, the capacity of architecture to be used in other cultural contexts is highlighted, expanding its impact on different artistic manifestations and heritages worldwide. This article includes a comparative analysis with other existing models, highlighting the advantages of this solution in terms of customization and adaptability. Finally, opportunities for improvement and expansion are explored, as well as the pending challenges in the implementation of this technological tool in educational and cultural environments.
