Curio - software for museum exhibitions

AI is such an interesting opportunity (as well as potentially fraught!) to make the work of the GLAM sector more widely accessible. I came across a wonderful AI experiment recently - called the Living Museum which has been made by Jonathan Talmi using publicly available data from the British Museum. Jonathan says: "I made this  because I wanted to explore how modern technology like AI could be used to augment the experience of visiting museums, and bring the experience to people at home. I view this as an early test in how conversational interfaces, AI museum guides, enhanced catalogue  search, augmented reality, and virtual reality could be used t o make museums more interactive, engaging, and educative." I found it totally fascinating to have a "conversation" about an object which was surprisingly engaging. What do you think of it?

Anyone coming to Australian Museums and Galleries Association conference in a couple of weeks who wants a welcome reception ticket - we have some to share. 😍

Making your own interactive displays has never been easier. Curio - software for museum exhibitions has a few ideal uses (spoiler alert - it doesn't do everything - but what it does do, it does really well): https://lnkd.in/ggDtJYb5

With Curio you can make your own games - at least that is what Lauren Weston and team have done at Arkansas Game and Fish Commission have done - take a look: https://lnkd.in/gDkjewes

One of the questions we get asked a LOT is which touchscreens to buy. With over 30 years experience in this area we attempt to answer those common hardware questions in this post: (ask me any other hardware questions in the comments - we are not "selling" anything, just happy to share our knowledge.) https://lnkd.in/fcn-VQ6

I love seeing the creative ways our customers around the world are using Curio - software for museum exhibitions to tell their stories to visitors in their own ways. It's great to see the freedom they have when they don't have to back for more budget, or hire a tech consultant, to make a new interactive. They just click "start a new project".
