The MoDE is located in Dumbo, Brooklyn on 65 Jay Street (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass). It stands for Museum of Digital Experiences, and according to its website, it is “New York’s first all-digital museum”.
The first exhibition features 14 digital art installations showcasing both technological and artistic innovations. The museum plans to incorporate additional showcases as it continues to blaze the trail of futuristic museums. There is a focus on interactivity, with some elements of the museum working according to patron movement.
