Traveling
Corners/Esquinas Rodantes takes into consideration current debates dealing
with the interactive museum as a public and civic space, the interactive
space as a social park, interactive public art, entertaining, sensorial
responses and the spectacular creation of a social experience in an interactive
community. The public space also has been affected by the new medias. Music
and Video could be stream via the Internet, allowing live concerts to reach
a large audience. Visits to museums are no longer a travel problem. Thanks
to this new technology, if we have access to the Internet, we can see artworks
that are in permanent collections at museums all over the world. |
The artworks were physical object, as well as the kiosk that we were producing. It was then, when we realized that a curatorial approach could serve as a platform to enhance the educational experience of the visitor user. (See Diagrams) We all have agreed that the photographs obtained during the research plus digital copies of historical maps, the text create for the project and digital manipulated images created by the artists will be use in the content of the kiosk and the web site. |

We
asked artists from Yucatan and California to produce artworks or to donate
existent pieces of art that could fit in to the project. We were planning
to use the artworks to develop the interfaces of the project when we ran
against the question: How can we design a virtual space that is accessible
to the inhabitants of the physical space in a way that it becomes an extension
of itself? |
Parallel to this, some of them will be displayed along the walls of the interactive kiosk on wheels, and in some cases, depending on the nature of the exhibition space; they will become part of the large installation. [-PORTAL-]
