An Interactive AI Experience: Homer's Epic Poems

In this new temporary exhibition, you will get a unique chance to be among the first to try tour guidance using AI. The AI will guide you through 8 objects (mostly prints of famous paintings), covering some of the most famous dramas throughout human history, namely the Trojan war, the wrath of Achilles and Odysseus' long return home after the Trojan war.

The program for each hourly slot is as follows:

• 5-10 min: Welcome, free refreshments + surprise ancient greek brew (alcoholic)
• 5 min: Introduction and instructions
• 30-45 min: AI-guided tour

Some requirements for joining are:

• You must be older than 18
• You must bring your own smartphone, which needs to connect to Beam's WiFi.
• IMPORTANT NOTE (for Android users). Please do the following two things before you arrive: 
  • Download the Firefox web browser
  • Ensure your screen can stay ON for at least 50 minutes. Either configure this in your individual Android settings, or download the app called "Screen Alive":

Other apps might work too, but this has been tested and worked well.

• Iphone users should use the "safari" browser

You will be given a dedicated headset, as well as a converter for your phone. I have converters for older iPhones, newer iPhones and Android phones.

Looking forward to see you there!
