Art Gets Unmasked in the Palm of Your Hand
NY Times (2/12/2010)
“In the ’50s, we were the first museum in the world to have an audio tour,” Hein Wils, a project manager for the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, said last month. “Today, we’re one of the first to have augmented reality.” Mr. Wils was speaking about the museum’s project that lets people use their smartphones to enrich their museum visits. Smartphones can overlay digital content, like images or movies, across real spaces. … The Amsterdam museum is not alone in its use of smartphones. Within the next year, many of the top museums in the world — especially contemporary ones — will introduce applications for smartphones, if they have not done so already.

In Philadelphia, the month-old “Museum Without Walls” audio program was created to be used like a customizable museum that’s free and never closes. Its self-guided audio tours are available 24-7 in several different formats: You can call phone numbers listed with each sculpture, use a free smart phone app, download the audio at http://museumwithoutwallsaudio.org to an MP3 player, or scan a special bar code (known as a QR or quick response code) on the free “Museum Without Walls” map at locations around the city.
Using Mobile Phones to Guide Museum Visitors
The chronicle of Philanthropy (29/07/2010)
The American Museum of Natural History, in New York, offers a great example of how museums and other cultural institutions can use the iPhone and other smart-phone devices to help patrons navigate collections and learn about exhibits. …The social-media Web site Mashable notes that other museums—notably the Brooklyn Museum, in New York, and the Graphic Design Museum, in the Netherlands—have iPhone apps.
