THE MUSES
MUSEUMS & GALLERIES
If the Muses were real, which of them inspired the Rosetta Stone? Who sparked the imagination of Matisse? Who guided scientists to their most briliant ideas?
Who gave us the very concept of museums themselves?
Coupling research with community creative writing, we are bringing the processes of our greatest artists, inventors and scientists to life through the power of AR & VR.
By giving voice and agency to our diverse reimagining of the Muses, we also aim to show how everyone has access to inspiration and that the museum is a unique place to find it.
HOW IT WORKS
1
Identify pieces of the museum collection with a hidden story to tell and research their artist/inventor's creative process.
2
Gather a local community group to imagine and write a scene of one of the Muses inspiring the artists or inventors.
3
Create 3D digital characters of the Muses and artist/inventors and place them virtually in the museum through AR.
4
Discover the imagined story of key pieces in the museum via personal smartphones and share them to social media.
