ZKM | Media Museum

*_The ZKM | Media Museum is the world's first and only museum for interactive art. Its thematic spectrum covers such areas as interactive film, simulation techniques for Cyberspace and the use of latest software applications on the Internet. In the Media Museum we see the juxtaposition of media art with popular games or research projects with didactic work spaces – and the critical debate surrounding the products of commercial and global culture is met head on. One focal point is the interactive media art gallery, where examples of this new form clearly document its development. Installations and environments show various strategies used to involve the viewer in the works and demonstrate the creative employment of new technologies.][
