The V&A website was last refreshed in 2011. It looked dated with poor user experience and was built on technology that made it hard to publish content rapidly or make improvements to the front-end experience. Our ultimate goal was to turn more of the 14.5 million visits to our website each year into visits to the museum and our strategy is already bearing fruit. From the day the new website launched (April 2016) we saw an absolute step change in the way that people engage with the revamped visit-focussed content: People are staying for longer - time on page has increased by 22% People are exploring further - bounce rates have dropped by 20% Plenty more …

Mission possible: Returning gamers to museums! Interactive 3d technologies and game mechanics allow presenting even most complex information in a fascinating way. The number of users returning to a game is several times greater than that of returning users of an ordinary informational app. In the course of the game they are motivated to learn more about the museum exhibits, with which they have repeatedly interacted. This initiates a process of active learning. We realized that game needed to win over some of the large gaming audience and bring it to the virtual museum of Tula State Arms Museum. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vizerra.tulaweapons https://itunes.app…

This documentary was made in Portalegre and in the North Alentejo, but its limits extend beyond this limits, Region or even Portugal. It is based on men and women who posses practical experience and specialised knowledge which they suddenly no longer utilised, as they lost any secure perspective in terms of what the future held for them. In short, it shows us the end of an Industrial Era.

The spaces Bosch presents don’t have anything to do with reality, nor with human comprehension. He is one of the first masters of the history of art who introduces in his images a dreamlike component which exceeds the conscious reality. Fantasy, humor, criticism, the vast symbolic universe that is needed to look over and understand the poetic interpretation of his artistic narrative, serve the painter to explore human nature and its adaptation to the context. The off-screen voice guide the journey and makes stops in passages from R.M. Rilke (sonnets to Orpheus), M.J. Romero (It is still today) and Charles Baudelaire (The clock) which express in poetry the drama of the artist, his ontologica…
