Creators:	Mey, Adeena and Hui, Yuk
Description:	By going back to the critical moment of the cybernetisation of the museum and of the exhibition, this essay aims to put forward a thesis considering the exhibition as medium.

It proposes a genealogy of the exhibition as medium and describes a critical historical trajectory shaped by institutional and informational infrastructures.
