Turin, June 16th 2016: School of Robotics at Palazzo Madama
Reading time: 1 minuteOrganized by FondazioneTorino Musei, and Singularity University Geneva: MUSEUM: VISION 2026, on 16th-17th June 2016, Palazzo Madama in Turin. How the idea of Museum will be changed in ten yers ahead? How they have to change, to tackle the challenges of a super speedy society? School of Robotics Honorary President, Gianmarco Veruggio is invited to talks about the new Maker movement, in which we could list, as spiritual affiliates, Leonardo da Vinci, Filippo Brunelleschi, Gugliemo Marconi, and many Itaians who "made" objects inspired by beauty and functionality, objects deserving to be displayed in any museum.
Museum Vision 2026 is a workshop, a platform to open a window onto the future of museum experiences and their straight influence on social and economic perspectives. We are living a time of deep change,
in which the concepts of art, science and fourth industrial revolution are being subverted.
The Turin Museums Foundation is monitoring and following these changes. In collaboration with Singularity University Geneva, they are holding a conference dedicated to the analysis of present scenarios and vision of future in 10 years.
Gianmarco Veruggio's Talk: Making is Fun! June 16, 11 hour.
The workshop MUSEUM - VISION 2026 aims to identify a series of museum experiences in the context of the fourth industrial revolution. Museum s in Italy are facing profound changes, especially at the intersection between art and science. Fondazione Torino Musei is carefully following these changes, and - in collaboration with Singularity University Geneva - wants to propose a conference on the analysis of existing scenarios and on the ten-year forecast. The activities will be developed in two days:

- 2. TRENDSWATCH: the convergence of communications, technology and science
- 3. MAKERS: artisans beyond digital
- 4. CROWD: the museum as a community service
