From Faraday to AI
About
“All arts and sciences have a connection with one another, and discoveries in natural philosophy and other branches of speculative knowledge, for the improvement and advancement of which the said museum or collection was intended, do and may give rise to the most useful experiments and inventions.” British Museum Act (1753)Join us at this hybrid event, where Professor Carl Heron, Director of Scientific Research at the British Museum, will explore the past, present and future of science and technology in the study museum collections. What is the context of these interventions and what have we learned? How do these applications support the wider purposes of museums, such as enhancing access and promoting understanding? What are the opportunities and challenges? I will select relevant examples drawn from the British Museum collection but I will also widen the discussion to other museums and the essential roles they play.
