Notas del editor
¿Explicamos lo que el público quiere saber? O lo que desde el saber científico del museo queremos explicar?
Hya necesidad de un punto de encuentro, es decir, de una combinación de rigor científico y accesibilidad.
Dar claves de interpretación
Facilitar conocer los secretos del arte y del museo
Pero, sabemos construir buenas estructuras narrativas, un buen storytelling? Es todo un reto para los profesionales de museos desarrollar las capacidades interpretativas. A menudo, los dept. de educación lo hacen, para el público escolar, pero para el público general?
Y dentro del recorrido museográfico? Está claro que no podemos cargar las paredes de textos que no serán leídos o de cartelas demasiado extensas. Y aquí la Tecnología nos puede ayudar mucho. Pero, insisto, lo fundamental sigue siendo la capacidad de la calidad de la interpretación.
Las obras nos brindan infinidad de historias para contar.
Todo ello teniendo en cuenta la accesibilidad para usuarios con necesidades específicas
This map is intended to help visualizing the outreach of the digital dimension as well as to become a useful tool for museums.
The map addresses the public side of digital (excluded are for example, security systems, preventive conservation and restoration tools, etc.)
There could probably be more interconnexions established, but we decided to keep it simple.
Once seen the outreach and the complexity of the interrelations, -almost everything is intertwined,- it seems quite obvious that an integral digital strategy is needed, as well as an accurate planning, with cross-departmental cooperation.
It’s for each museum to adapt it as it best suits his mission and according to its priorities and resources.
What do you feel is missing? How could we improve it?
