Paper presented to upper managers of Iberian and Latin American Museums at the 8th Meeting of Iberomuseos. Main message: don't be a Dowager Countess and lose relevance by sheer fear of unknown technologies; embrace the technologies, empower visitants, and reap the creative and repetitional benefits of doing so. Surrender your authority and create a platform for/by/with your communities.

There is no better place than a museum to look at perfect bodies. […]
I only selected Greek classical marble statues. This interest in ancient
classical Greek statuary was prompted by the accuracy of its anatomy,
the realism of its stance and the influence it still has on the shape of the
male body.
