Artefact H10515 - Powerhouse Museum
Currently in exhibition at Sydney's Powerhouse Museum, Artefact H10515 is the Museum’s unique ‘living’ acquisition that explores the diverse ways we source, shape and present collections.
Artefact H10515 moves and breathes contained within the physical boundaries of the display case it inhabits. Visitors can interact with Artefact H10515 by touching the glass case and uploading their own favourite things from within and beyond the Museum via the Thingalyzer. From one day to the next the form of Artefact H10515 will evolve in random and unexpected ways.
Artefact H10515 prowls around feeding on content from a variety of sources from across the internet including the Museum’s own collection to present a constantly changing organism.
Artefact H10515 explores alternative ways of presenting and experiencing a collection and incorporating the collection interests of the wider Museum community.
Opens August 2009
Artefact H10515 currently occupies the ground floor of the Powerhouse Museum in the gallery on the right, just before the doors to the courtyard cafe.
Artefact H10515 is free with admission. Tickets can always be purchased at the door
Artefact H10515 is always changing as you and others feed it your collections. Come back many times to see how it has changed.
