Vibe

VIBE is a project that addresses the future of curated cultural consumption and experience. Co-funded by the Creative Innovation Lab programme of the European Union, the project involves the curation of culture-generating creatives, the design of interconnected phygital immersive experiences and environments through tools such as a digital platform, a digital publication, audio-visual pieces and body wearables, with focus on impacting on Gen Z audiences as main culture future consumers. The main objective is to design the next generation museum’s content and experiences involving digital technologies, a sort of ‘sensorial Netflix of curated culture’, and implies the execution of a pilot experience in the form of an exhibition.
The agents helping in this transformational change of the cultural institutions are: Elisava Research, as main conceiver and coordinator of the project, and introducing new methodologies in curatorial and exhibition development processes; MAGMA France in mediation events; Nemorin UK in developing purposeful audio-visual productions; and by-wire, introducing wearable technology to enhance the visiting experience.
