moden interactive museums

scribble tags: , , ,

The Victora and Albert Library is a living piece of history.  A free piblic library where the resources themselves are artefacts of beauty. 

The internet provides information,  sometimes that information is beautifully packaged in ‘media experiences’.  The internet has not yet managed to add to its experience the package offered by old libraries of:

book scent

aging parchment texture

 atmosphere of being surrounded by ancient books

the sound of librarian moderated silences
