From Khan Academy Co-Deans for Art and History, Beth Harris and Steven Zucker:
You may have been wondering what Smarthistory has been up to since we joined Khan Academy in October. We’ve had to keep this hush-hush…but we can now announce that we have contributed more than 100 videos to the unbelievably great, second iteration of the Google Art Project:
We’ve made 90 Khan Academy videos expressly for version 2, which launched today, April 3rd, at the Musée d’Orsay, the Art Institute of Chicago, and museums in many other countries. We’ve also contributed 26 pre-existing videos to the Art Project. Finally, we worked closely with Sandbox Studios to create an engaging introduction to looking at art: Dropmeftp 1 6 0 – a simple ftp client.
Our videos can be seen in the education section (the playlist is embedded at the bottom of the first page) and on the specific object “detail” pages.
We jumped at this opportunity because the Art Project has such enormous educational potential. It is critical to gather works of art from different institutions to tell the nuanced stories of art history. The Art Project brings together works of art from 151 museums in 40 countries within a cohesive visual environment. The high resolution images, powerful zoom function, “Museum View” (an interior version of “Street View”) and the ability to collect and annotate images, are all features that are ideal for teaching and learning.
The Google Art Project uses algorithms to allow you to search through the available artworks. From my observation, it seems that this algorithm is conservative in yielding results relative to the search term. The results are ranked by the collection (museum) with the most artworks matching the search term. Khan Academy and the Google Art Project Learn for free about math, art, computer programming, economics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, finance, history, and more.

Accessibility and education are big goals here. As for the marketing side of things, yes, there will be more data available on your interests so it's likely this will play a part in targeted marketing at some point, as Giacomo says.

Museums of art safeguard, make accessible, and interpret our shared cultural history even as they help to define the civic aspirations of their communities. Museums have always been defined by place, although traveling exhibitions and, more recently, museum websites have helped to “jail break” the art. Studiolinked melody machine kontakt download free. André Malraux famously identified this new ability to see across institutional collections in his essay, the “Museum Without Walls.”
Remote connect minecraft ps4. For a “Museum Without Walls” is coming into being, and…it will carry infinitely farther that revelation of the world of art…which the “real” museums offer us within their walls.
