Spatial Design Research on Digital Media Technology Intervention in Immersive Art Theory Exhibition Venues

“…Nowadays, with the continuous progress of our country's science and technology, the spatial design of the exhibition venues also uses new media technology to achieve the traditional integration of venue design and technology innovation [10][11]. Most of the spatial design of the exhibition venues in a specific time and space within the language of art on the design of the space [12]. The spatial design of the exhibition venues, to a certain extent, is a composite nature On the basis of the art design field, plus some two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and four-dimensional design factors, in order to achieve perfect communication with the audience of a bridge [13][14].…”

“…

Public libraries have undergone permutations and faced challenges for almost 40 years, while the demand for their core services is declining, affecting their cultural centrality, and reinforced by media stereotypes (Goulding, 2006). Researchers point to various reasons for this condition: political policy, the establishment of an information society, and the weakening of the physical space (Goulding, 2006;Rogers, 2009;Smith, 2017). The authority given to libraries in the past due to their pivotal role in preserving and curating knowledge, history, and culture has been undermined in the information era as information leaks out by endless sources (Johnson & Harris, 1976).

“…Furthermore, as the digital age requires traditional institutions to become more reactive, democratic, and reflexive, museums and libraries are expected to create new models of visitor participation that enhance the experience of visitors and extend it beyond their physical location (Weilenmann et al, 2013). Consequently, many libraries, and the New York Public Library (NYPL) especially (Vershbow, 2013), enabled remote access to their databases and catalogs, enriched the textual inventory with music and videos, and created interfaces for online communication with the library's staff and loaning digital titles (Smith, 2017).…”

In particular, the rise of the internet presented a slew of threats and opportunities for public libraries (Herring, 2014; Rogers, 2009; Smith, 2017). Some scholars claimed that libraries suffer from an identity crisis (Smith, 2017), and questioned whether the internet, with its information economy, foreshadows their demise (Goulding, 2006).…”

Others suggested that the essence of libraries would change from “collection” to “connection” (Jochumsen et al, 2017) as they would have to broaden their services to remain relevant in the ever-changing reality of the 21st century.…”
