Musei-explorer for the future

Thoughts from an museum explorer in training:

The World is changing....

We live in a world that is changing very fast nowadays.
10 years ago not everyone had a mobile or a computer ...

Now nearly every one in Europe has at least one mobile phone which they can be connected to internet and use the social medias instantly.

How is this changing the use of the culture and social arenas like for example the museums, galleries, city and street arts and performances?

How can we as curious indivivuals with a will to expand our knowledge use these new fields of the technology and culture? How can interactive applications like QR tags, Facebook comments, Twitter and mobile photo uploads be used in musuems and galleries?
What can we demand and claim and ask for? How are the art and exhibition designers viewing and making the upcoming exhibitions?

I hope to be able to post some more thoughts here about these subjects during my studiesin "Museum, exhibitons and learning"  this autum.

Be welcome to read and comment or just add your opinions and examples if you want.
