A “living museum”: spectacle and “reenchantment” for technique
Keywords:
Museum, Communication, Technology, MultimediaAbstract
It seeks problematizing some changes which museums have undergone in the last few decades, from an analysis of the Museum of the Portuguese Language and considering contemporary culture as a background. This way, the museum is aligned with some perspectives as the spectacle and the mass culture from a dynamics that privileges the mass images and the temporary exhibitions. In the same way, when it incorporates the multimediatic images and the digital technologies, the museum changes the museum experience, made possible by the technological mediation, new forms of perception, visibilities and a participative appropriation of knowledge. The museum, therefore, is seen as a space of ambiguities and contradictions, reflecting traits of contemporary culture itself.Downloads
