The Hottest New Star of the 2024 Met Gala is technology and research
There’s a new star at the center of the largest pop culture event of the year — Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Reality. This year’s Met Gala theme is Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion and will center the rebirth and renewal of iconic fashion pieces of history.
Andrew Bolton is the curator in Charge at the Met and according to Vogue has structured this year’s exhibit around 50 historical pieces some of them dating back to the 19th century. On November 8, the museum described that this exhibit is going to use “first-hand research, conservation analysis, and diverse technologies — from cutting-edge tools, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and computer-generated imagery to traditional formats of x-rays, video animation, light projection, and soundscapes — to reactivate the sensory capacities of masterworks in the Museum’s collection.”
