2020 年初,为了阻止冠状病毒大流行,世界各国政府推出了各种社交距离规则,许多公共场所关门了。旅行和大型聚会都被认为是感染媒介,因此,文化景点和旅游目的地受到病毒预防措施的打击尤其严重。许多博物馆的反应是将其藏品转移到网上,从而催生了各种数字举措,展示了遗产部门的创造力、多样性和社区性。一些机构开始收集流行病资料来记录病毒的影响,而另一些机构则通过多个平台与公众分享他们已经数字化的收藏。社交媒体在该行业日益受到尊重,提振了游客社区,甚至博物馆行业本身也受到了影响,博物馆+遗产展等年度活动将其节目转移到了网上。1这篇评论调查了针对 COVID-19 大流行的三种类型的应对措施,从尝试复制博物馆参观体验,到利用在线平台的替代方案,再到设想与观众之间截然不同的关系的举措。这些选择并不是为了具有代表性,而是将作者在封锁期间的经历纳入对话,反映了在整个大流行期间越来越多的国际和挪威博物馆地点、展览和活动的一小部分样本,同时评论了更广泛的趋势。参观如此多元化的博物馆让我们对冠状病毒时代的数字旅游有了新的认识。
As governments across the world introduced a variety of social distancing rules in early 2020 in an effort to stop the coronavirus pandemic, many public spaces closed their doors. Both travelling and large gatherings are understood as vectors for infection, and as a consequence, cultural attractions and tourist destinations were particularly hard hit by virus prevention measures. The response of many museums was to take their collections online, resulting in a variety of digital initiatives which showcased the creativity, diversity and community of the heritage sector. Some institutions began pandemic collections to document the impact of the virus, while others shared their already digitised collections with the public through a multitude of platforms. Social media, increasingly respected in the sector, buoyed up visitor communities, and even the museum industry itself was affected, with annual events such as the Museums + Heritage Show moving their programming online.1 This review surveys three types of responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, from attempts to replicate the museum visit experience, to alternative replacements making use of online platforms, to initiatives that envision radically different relationships to their audiences. The selection is not intended to be representative, but instead draws into dialogue the experiences the authors had during lockdown, reflecting a small sample of international and Norwegian museum locations, exhibitions and engagements that were increasingly available throughout the pandemic, while commenting on wider trends. Visiting such a cross-section of museums offers us fresh insight into digital tourism in the age of the coronavirus.
