In 2011, Museomix was launched in France\u2014an open-concept lab that invited the public to take ownership of a museum in order to rethink its outreach. Year after year, this \u201cmakeathon\u201d has gained momentum, attracting more and more participants, until it finally reached our shores in 2025. <\/b>Eug\u00e9nie Sauzier-de Rosnay<\/em><\/p>\n

Following a successful first regional edition at the Museum of Slavery in November of last year, Museomix returns from November 12 to 14, 2026. Organized by the French Institute of Mauritius (IFM), this year\u2019s event will take place at L\u2019Aventure du Sucre, a museum known for its ability to reinvent itself, as evidenced by the recent redesign of its exhibition layout\u2014the result of a two-year project carried out in collaboration with the Paris-based agency Cl\u00e9mence Farrell. True to its philosophy, the famous cultural hackathon follows a reverse model: it is no longer the museum that identifies a need; rather, it applies to host a collective of fresh perspectives and thus create a space for creative effervescence. <\/p>\n

\u201cWith Museomix, we don\u2019t just come to visit cultural heritage\u2014we come to challenge it, question it, and imagine new ways to tell its story,\u201d explains Adrien Schwarz, digital cooperation officer at the IFM. Participants, selected through an application process, will work in multidisciplinary teams bringing together various professionals from the sector: designers, developers, cultural mediators, artists, historians, tinkerers\u2026 For three days, these teams will be able to give free rein to their imagination to design prototypes of digital tools in a pop-up lab equipped with 3D printers, laser cutters, and electronic equipment. <\/p>\n

More than just an event, Museomix aims above all to build tangible bridges between heritage, local expertise\u2026 and the present! On November 14, the museum will open its doors to the general public from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.: visitors will be able to try out the installations designed by our local creators and enjoy exceptional performances, such as a contemporary sega tipik<\/i> show presented by SR DANCE, as well as a mini-concert by Anouchka Massoudy. And afterward? Nothing goes to waste: the prototypes will be released under a Creative Commons license. \u201cThe host museum also retains these concepts and can draw on them to develop real permanent projects or temporary exhibitions in the future,\u201d explains Alisha Juhoor, project manager (Micro-Folie Moris) and partnerships coordinator at the IFM. Beautiful seeds to plant\u2026 and watch sprout! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
