Dinge - Nutzer - Netze Von der Virtualisierung des Musealen zur Musealisierung des Virtuellen / Dennis Niewerth. - 1 online resource (1 p.)
Access copy available to the general public.
Museums are always also virtual spaces: as institutions of shared remembrance, they build bridges between the presence and absence, the materiality of their exhibits and a past that only in their legacies can assert their reality. Nevertheless, in a society for which virtuality has become normal, the institution of museums and their dealings with the media, which has long since stopped being ubiquitous, continue to be the arenas of heated debates about the reality, the authenticity and the experienceability of the real. Dennis Niewerth explores the question of what constitutes the "virtualization of the muse". And it shows what the museum has to offer as a bulwark of cultural education in the sense of a "virtualisation of the virtual" of a society that threatens to be buried under the fullness of its memories.
