The Loop is an interactive museum and arts resource.

• Objectives of the app To generate dialogue around the arts;To connect arts organisations with their communities; allowing them to serve them better;To create an informed arts experience to which visitors can actively contributeTo encourage networking, interaction and community

• Who is the app designed for?The app has two fronts, one one hand it’s designed for enthusiasts of art and culture such as artists, researchers, academics, students, curators, school groups; and on the other hand it’s designed for museum, arts and cultural organisations

• For the visitor, the app …provides a chance to discuss ideas and give feedback;

creates a better experience by providing support material related media as well as opportunities for further learning;

makes it possible to participate as part of a community.

• For the organisation, the app …makes it easier to quantify success and to gain feedback about exhibitions and projects from a wide variety of sources;reduces the need for clutter of information in exhibition halls;and it creates another level of engagement with the visitor, before, during and after their visit

• What is a loop?A loop is a location specified by GPS data;Loops appear automatically when they are near to the user; or they can be searched for;A single museum might have multiple loops for different exhibition spaces;A certain loop might include an entire city in the case of Graffiti in Melbourne, for example, or Urban Design in Rotterdam;A loop might be a single shopfront or a room in an artist-run project space.

How does it work?Users need to login and create an account;

Without an account, only the basic ‘Guestbook’ function of a loop can be used;

Users can enter a loop to view media and other resources; but in order to use a loop properly (to interact, upload content, comment, etc.), users need to physically visit the loop’s location;

Once a user has been recognised inside the GPS coordinates of the loop, the loop is completely open to them.
