Digital<\/strong> Residency<\/b><\/p>\n

The MAMBO Digital Residency emerged as a response to the need to rethink the role of digital tools in museums. Aimed at individuals interested in researching and experimenting with the use of digital technologies in museum contexts, this residency focuses on three main areas: the digitization of collections and archives, the digital reinterpretation of works from the MAMBO collection, and the development of new curatorial and educational practices adapted to virtual environments.<\/p>\n

The goal of the residency is to facilitate the development of research-creation projects that address the museum\u2019s content from a digital perspective. Residents are invited to propose initiatives that explore the potential of digital technologies to create interactive experiences and new forms of access to the collection. These projects may include digital artistic responses, the design of applications and interactive platforms, immersive virtual tours, the digitization of historical archives, and the production of multimedia content for digital platforms.<\/p>\n

The winners of the first edition of the Digital Residency are Sebasti\u00e1n Mira and Digital Visual Studies collective.<\/b><\/p>\n

Residency 1<\/b>
<\/b>pixel quadrants \u2013 Sebasti\u00e1n Mira<\/b><\/p>\n

pixel quadrants<\/span><\/i><\/a> consists of the digital reinterpretation of seven paintings from the MAMBO Collection by Colombian artist Rodrigo Callejas. This reinterpretation was carried out through gamified and navigable experiences on the multiplayer platform spatial.io. Through this proposal, Sebasti\u00e1n explores landscape art via interactive interfaces and reflects on how we perceive and integrate with the world. By reimagining the genre of landscape in the digital context, he invites us to reconsider the relationship between the physical and the virtual, creating a bridge between the museum and digital generations, as well as distant audiences.<\/p>\n

Sebasti\u00e1n\u2019s project was developed in two stages: in the first, he selected works from the MAMBO Collection that explore different approaches to landscape art; in the second, he worked on the digital reinterpretation of these seven pieces, experimenting with various trials and adaptations to transfer them into the virtual environment.<\/p>\n

pixel quadrants<\/i> focuses on the exploration of virtual landscape art and hypermateriality\u2014concepts that question the relationship between the physical and the digital in the production and exhibition of art. Digitization is not only used as a medium but as a creative tool to generate experiences and forms of interaction with the pieces. In this sense, Sebasti\u00e1n reflects on the role of the web and video games as exhibition platforms, highlighting their ability to create immersive spaces where the boundaries between the material and the virtual blur.<\/p>\n

Upon entering spatial.io, a vast, white, sterile landscape greets the visitor. In the center is a barbed-wire structure arranged in a grid-like form, with sections containing portals to eight different worlds: seven of them inspired by Rodrigo Callejas’ paintings and one based on the physical layout of the MAMBO. Entering these portals, the visitor plunges into various pictorial atmospheres, seemingly empty, that invite exploration and traversal.<\/p>\n

This process raises questions about the implications of digitizing collections in museums and how we engage with works in a digital format. Ultimately, digitization acts as a bridge, helping cultural institutions bring their content closer to digital generations and audiences who, although unable to visit the museum physically, have access to internet-connected devices. pixel quadrants<\/i> uses digital tools to rethink how collections can be experienced in the digital age.<\/p>\n
