Περίληψη: | Museums are exploring the potential of digital
technologies and tools for, among other things,
visual literacy education, visitor engagement and
exhibition curation. In this chapter, we will inquire
about the different functions and roles of
technology in the museum space, and we will
examine how to establish a meaningful interaction
between art(efacts), people and tools to improve
curation, visual literacy practices and visitor
experiences. Experiences from the RETINA
project in 2018 have shown us that interactions
without this element of meaningfulness can easily
lead to the development of tools and technologies
that are distractive rather than supportive. Based
on a co-creation workshop in 2021 with different
museum stakeholders and on former museum
research experiences in museum settings, we will
discuss barriers and enablers to good technology
uses in the museum, and supportive and
distractive characteristics of technology.
Furthermore, we will introduce scenarios of what
future museums could look like from the
perspective of technology through the eyes of
youth and museum professionals and researchers.
