I am a multi-passionate creative, graduate of a Design High school and an Architecture University. Since the early years, I was curious about the artistic ways our Zeitgeist manifests, hence reaching in high school the 2nd place at National Olympiad of History Of Arts, and managing to represent my University at RIBA President Medals. Through many international workshops and practice in 4 different countries, I continue to observe and analyze the evolution of society and architecture alike.

How should Augmented Reality be integrated inside a cultural program in order to enrich our inner life?

# Technology

Systemic changes

How could media tools support the manifests of highbrow culture? Within this paper, I investigated the ways AR technology may enrich the experiences generated by the use of cultural space.
Contemporary digital technology plays an important role in all our activities, being mainly used as a generator of Virtual Reality.But the present interaction is carried out by means of interfaces, leading to the isolation of people in relation to the real world.On cultural activities, VR promotes cultural products based on speed and accessibility, where the public has a passive role.
Relying precisely on the importance of interaction and active involvement of the public with the building, this study examines what mediatecture and AR tools could offer as solutions for reconciliation between highbrow culture and digital technology. The aim is to create a strong bond between the community and the building -using the latest technology- and to provoke a dialogue with the inner world of the individual.
