It would be great to add curated exhibitions alongside the single-artist retrospectives: rooms mixing works by several artists, the way a museum curator would assemble a show.
I agree! thinking of going beyond art to include national history. Being Greek, I plan to try Greek history next. Again a museum with paintings sculptures docuemntaty videos transcripts etc.
nice maybe rooms designed not just from a generic historical period but themed from the painters specific life moments / or specific era? will work on that, thank you
Not ATM ! Thinking of curating more the content and also add an audioguide about the life of each painter as well as some details when you come close to famous paintings. But a nice idea, but it would need better resolution of the paintings (not possible atm since are from wikipedia).
Very cool, would love to experience (ultra) high resolution presentations of the art. I was the kid that always got scolded by putting my nose up to the cavas to see the brush strokes..
What is strange is that last year I spent a lot of time creating the exact same 3D gallery experience with Claude. I picked up the style of the lights, the benches, the walls, the cards position. I also added music, lights on top of the images and the exact tour experience.
A year later, I see a very similar implementation!...I find that very odd.
But I do like the experience and site, there are few things I can pick from it myself for the project I've.
But it seems to me anything you use Claude for will be used aggressively to train the next model and some else in same prompting space can recreate it.
Not take the anything from the author's work, mine was in a slightly different context.
Indeed i have seen the concept on youtube back in the days. Also what you saying I agree too, about big LLMs that are trained on others people work (i.e. math). it started as single prompt so the model did its own work with a hight probability of using others people work, after that i worked a lot on this. In the future I am sure that i will use my work too.
Nevertheless, I have gathered many ideas from the comments. if you are interested we can cooperate on the project. its a project out of pure interest exporing on more ways to ingest/spread knowledge.
hehe i know right, i was waiting for this! this is supposed to be for educational purposes, but since you want a bit of fun to press P on your keyboard and for password do Vandalism0
This is an awesome project. It could bring the art museum experience to those that can't travel to museums.
But it is missing so many artists and art movements. A better choice of source material and way more artists can be found on wikiart.org [0]. Maybe the creator could merge scraping efforts?
This is super cool and I look forward to sharing with my art friends. One piece of unsolicited feedback: it is really nice to focus on a particular image in the gallery, but when I'm done, it puts me back in normal cursor mode and I have to click to 'step inside' again. Minor annoyance. Otherwise really neat.
This is incredibly cool. It's been a while since I felt this inspired by something on HN. Congratulations on the idea and the implementation!
I genuinely think there's an opportunity for someone (yourself, or someone else) to turn this into a genuinely social experience.
I'd love to see people's avatars walking around in some suitably tasteful way, with general info on location/age/sex/occupation. Be able to indicate if you're open to chatting.
Work with actual art historians to give prerecorded virtual tours that start every hour or something, so you can be part of a group following around.
There's something special about the museum experience, and the idea of virtualizing it in a way that makes it accessible to everyone, just through your browser rather than VR goggles, feels somehow a little bit magic.
Let people curate their own wing layouts and architecture and own art selection and where each painting gets hung. Have leaderboards of the most popular ones, and each wing can build doors that transition to other selected wings.
I genuinely think something like this could become "the" virtual museum, the same way Wikipedia is "the" electronic encyclopedia. It's just such a fundamentally different experience from how you currently browse museum's collections electronically.
feels like with all these edutainment demos that AI is enabling that i'm back playing with Encarta as a kid. Good work.
It's a shame that the real-world-metaphor computer stuff fell out of favor. microsoft bob, etc. It's not that efficient but it's so well self-explained ; to see more art you walk around a museum; who'da thought.

Nonetheless, nice expeirment.

I just find it how interesting we ended up with very similar design despite the iterations I had.
