I just seen this on the news tonight. In South Korea a museum has created masterpieces that react and talk to attendees.
One shown was the Moana Lisa and the Last Supper talking to the attendees.
Masterpieces That Talk

Sounds crass if you ask me.
The scientific method," Thomas Henry Huxley once wrote, "is nothing but the normal working of the human mind." That is to say, when the mind is working; that is to say further, when it is engaged in corrrecting its mistakes. Taking this point of view, we may conclude that science is not physics, biology, or chemistry—is not even a "subject"—but a moral imperative drawn from a larger narrative whose purpose is to give perspective, balance, and humility to learning.

My question is "why?" This is somewhat answered in some of the statements made by the museum, but I'm not sure they are good reasons.

I'm still not particularly struck with it now that I've seen it, and I think there better ways of getting the public to appreciate art.

There is truth in that. I do believe there is better ways to get people to appreciate art.
I'd still like to see in person. Though it's not going to make me appreciate art. 1) It wouldn't in the first place. 2) I already appreciate it.

I miss the good old days when you could just cut out the eyes in portraits, hide in the walls, making attempts on people's lives.
