I don't think everybody needs to be able to experience every artwork. I also feel as though in experiencing something digitally you're going to be much less inclined to seek out the fuller experience of it, which is a very concerning trend considering how much of our lives is now mediated by digital media. I'd personally much rather see it in real life than this iteration, though its existence online does at least stand to provoke that little bit extra at least.

Are Digital Experiences Robbing Reality?
Agreed, @stryptos! The wide availability of digital versions of experiences are bound to have many impacts, I wonder if the simulation of walking through the bridge could be augmented in any useful way to enrich the digital experience. It may be - and maybe it should be - that in another year or two we look at Google Street View walk through as plain vanilla and boring.

Yes @kenfinkel, simply digitizing an artwork isn't enough.. In digitizing a piece you're making an entirely new artwork and I don't feel as though that's explored or even acknowledged nearly enough. Much like the constant digitization of so many aspects of so many diverse culture isn't generally seen to undermine that diversity, though I believe it often does.

Yes. The devil is in the details. The new is in the nuance. We should be very motivated to reflect on these observations, to react and experiment. Much to be learned.
