A Second Canvas Case Study
The San Telmo Museum, in collaboration with Second Canvas, piloted a project to create a unique digital exhibition. The challenge was to move beyond simply displaying art on a screen and instead create an immersive, interactive experience that would allow visitors to engage with high-resolution digital versions of artworks in a meaningful way, surpassing mere contemplation.
Second Canvas implemented a solution using large LG TV screens and a custom version of their app running on docked iPods. This setup allowed visitors to intimately explore super high-resolution images and enriched storytelling content. The results were highly successful, with 75% of visitors spending over 20 minutes in the exhibit and 98.4% rating their satisfaction as a 4 or 5 out of 5. The project demonstrated the technical and economic feasibility for Second Canvas to provide this type of engaging digital experience to museums.
