The "Virtual Museum": New Perspectives For Museums to Present Objects and Information Using the Internet as a Knowledge Base and Communication System

نویسنده

  • Werner Schweibenz
چکیده

The relationship between museums and mass media as well as the possible impact of information technology on museums are described. The “virtual museum” is defined as a means to establish access, context, and outreach by using information technology. The Internet opens the “virtual museum” to an interactive dialog with virtual visitors and invites them to make a virtual museum experience that is related to a real museum experience. Some research is described on how the Internet can be used as a knowledge base and trends from surveys how museums and virtual visitors use the Internet as a communication tool. 1 In this paper the term virtual museum is used in quotation marks because to my knowledge there exist no accepted definition and the term in itself is an oxymoron.
