Conclusions drawn over a period of study in the 21st century museum:
Museums are a project, a service – something highly choreographed that you can experience both in and away from a venue. The architectural spaces are utilised to frame narratives and collections. But as a result of his high level of control, any information given to you has an agenda, and does not have the full story attached to it. Any cultural viewpoint or understanding cannot be fixed. Each new interaction with any cultural voice has to shift the understanding of the dominant regime of representation. Meaning is, therefore, always in flux. Yet digital media has allowed the museum to be everywhere, to become 24 hours; connected to all visitors irrespective of location. But how far can a curator’s powers over a tailored experience stretch? Our experiences become influenced by our immediate surroundings and the content that we are exposed to outside of the museum walls.
