A great visual representation of how the real and virtual worlds are merging. I'm curious what this holds for the future of cinema. Will we go to see "movies" in this kind of 360 immersive environment? Theaters have had surround sound for a long time, but what about "surround video"?

MAATurities is a programme designed for adult and senior audiences, where contemporary themes are explored through artistic discourses featured in the museum's exhibition programme. By fostering open dialogue between different generations and life experiences, the theoretical (online) and theoretical-practical (in-person at the museum) sessions serve as forums for debating and questioning the world around us. We recognise that the languages of contemporary art can sometimes create barriers for the public, yet we also acknowledge that no other period in art history has required such active spectator participation. These encounters have evolved into more than just enriching teatime moments to discuss art; they have become opportunities for human connection, friendship, and a means to escape the challenges of ageing. https://lnkd.in/d-CPnZyF Programme and photo by Fabricia Valente.

If you don't quite get the meaning of #UX, i.e. #UserExperience, this is the demonstration. Today, the #arts sector seems to lead with the immersive customer experience. And, it's equally fantastic when seen on a small or large screen. That's because we are now completely at home inside the digital experience. Yet, it is still difficult to create the UX on business #websites, one that will attract and compel to Action. User experience on a #smallbusiness website can be just a simple but unique graphic design (time for a refresh?); or an obsessive sharing of helpful #knowledge on a topic that matters to your customers; or #navigation that saves time and is delightful; or #CTAs that feel like a friend's invitation to a dinner, rather than a scary command. Like any good design, in #UX it's big thinking and the little things that make all the difference. Two things to consider here. One: this kind of UX doesn't happen in a vacuum but as a process of a superb understanding your customers, a business vision that goes beyond one #marketingcampaign, and then the #creative / #thoughtleadership work. Two: once a great, #evergreen experience has been created on your company website, it will generate a powerful momentum for growth.

My latest article for #TheArtNewspaper on a play by activist investors to shutter a museum and potentially liquidate its collection all in the name of better shareholder returns. It may looks like an art museum but through the eyes of Hong Kong-based #OasisManagement the Kawamura Memorial Museum of Art, which houses one of the most impressive collections of 20th Century Western art in Japan and one of only four #RothkoRooms in the world (along with Contemporary Japanese art), is little more than an underperforming capital asset that needs to be sold off and downsized or shut down. As part of this move the museum's entire collection has been listed with a book value thatis far below the amount the museum sold a single work by Barnett Newman in 2013 ... Known as #vultureinvestors, #OasisManagement has a track record of upending companies and ousting board members and CEOs to get their way. Despite the mayor of Sakura City and the Governor of Chiba prefecture publilcy putting their support behind a petition it was up to a concerned local to start one - if you inclined here's the link ->https://chng.it/8gmYtmRmSn #profitsoverpeople #corporatesocialresponsibility

One of the most fascinating aspects of art is its ability to evoke different meanings and interpretations from the viewer. During my recent visit to the Didrichsen Art Museum , I came across a piece called "Dialogue" that really captured this essence. The analysis of the piece emphasized the idea that there is no way to not interpret what we see in art, and that this interpretation requires interaction between the viewer and the piece. Have you come across any pieces lately that have left you contemplating their meaning? #interpretation #dialogue

Philosophy; As being humans we ponder about existance, our knowledge and behaviour and we look for ways of gaining perspective. Art can present us with various understandings of reality and often has the capacity to reduce complex manifoldness into a clear and readily understandible synthesis in a work of art. Art can also indicate various underlying structures of the human condition, thus pointing to something universal rather than portraying what is individual. As written in Aarhus Museum.

You should have a policy on cataloguing. This could either be a standalone document or part of a wider collections management policy. Either way, in deciding your policy you will need to consider this question: "How will you identify contemporary or historic bias within the museum's cataloguing practice?" 🔗 https://buff.ly/3SHILoW #PrimaryProcedures #MuseumDocumentation #Museums

Larger-Than-Life - Q - What references and stimuli does the classical form offer you ? A - The stimuli provided by anonymous artworks in museums contradict a modern obsession with originality and instead argue for a continuum. Another issue which I explore is the marginalisation of classical form and the loss of a datum for artisanal competence in contemporary art practice.
