AR-muse - The first augmented reality for art tracking in museums

in steemhunt •  6 years ago 

This is a great idea, and one which I'd love to play with.

But, if you've ever visited a major museum/gallery, like the Louvre in Paris, and seen the hordes around the Mona Lisa (or Sunflowers in London), then I'm not sure I'd appreciate this much.

It would add a whole new level of annoying people trying to interact with the art. Call me a purist, or a snob, but I believe you should stand and look at a piece of art, take it in and experience it "in the flesh", rather than trying to photograph it (why!?!???) or take a selfie with it.

I like the idea of the tech, but I know I'd be annoyed by people using it if the gallery was too crowded.

But for learning, and exploring art in new ways...wow!!!

Nice hunting

100% agreed. Technology should enhance the experience; not replace it. I actually came across go a nice article here: https://www.engadget.com/2018/11/29/mindfulness-meditation-biocybernaut-40-years-of-zen
