Technology and Museum Exhibits

By Asher Halpert, Posted on June 9th, 2013

Just saw this great NY Times article about how museums are utilizing technology, including mobile and social. Check it out here. The article focuses on fashion exhibits, but the ideas are applicable to all types.

Highlights from the article:

1. A fashion museum in London is showing film clips of actresses wearing the dress in the exhibit.
2. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is showing a hologram of Kate Moss wearing an Alexander McQueen collection.
3. The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology allows guests to tweet their reactions to exhibits and then to view a collection of all user reactions.

There are some really great ideas in the article and definitely a lot more room for many more!!
