The vision for the museum is to celebrate digital media and the artists who are embracing and exploring its limitless possibilities. The venue invites visitors to thoroughly explore the interactivity, lack of physical boundaries, and 24/7 availability of the online world.

It’s all about starting a conversation. This project is not targeting the usual digitally savvy crowd, but looking out to reach people who normally don’t relate to technology and digital.

The project has attracted world-class creative and curatorial talent – The inaugural exhibition – ‘Valley’ is by American artist Tony Oursler and curated by Bard College’s Tom Eccles.

‘Valley’ is a theoretical dissection of the internet, made up of video, audio recordings, drawings, interactive art and animations, that explore the relationship between humans and technology.
