I found a short but interesting article from ARTnews Magazine(September Issue) that provides a brief view into the future of experiencing art.?As the millenium approaches, it can be predicted that technology will transform the ways we can experience art.?Even as we speak, the programmed use of artificial intelligence is evident within gallery guides.?Cyber-savvy architects are designing museums so elaborate that?as one expert puts it?they?ll make the Bilbao Guggenheim ?look like a pimple.? Meanwhile, couch potatoes around the world are surfing virtual galleries from home.?How will these and other now-futuristic scenarios affect our interaction with original artworks? This is one of the questions presented in the article, which is in a special section devoted to the millennium.?
