NTT’s media museum has lacked a full schedule of exhibitions since the bottom fell out of the telecoms bubble a few years back, but the ongoing—and free—“Open Space” installation series has plenty of interactive features to keep visitors busy. The 2010 edition offers several new attractions, including Morel’s Panorama by veteran media-artist Masaki Fujihata. The NTT has also debuted a new corner for emerging artists, while children are sure to enjoy the “Kids’ Lounge,” which introduces them to the basics of media technology and the arts.
