The site is located on the south side of the Maas river, Rotterdam South. As Rotterdam is an international and contemporary city, I focused on contemporary technology. Technology for humans has always been a necessity, as the site has been transformed from polder to harbor by technology and it will transform one more time. Technology is more important than ever before. Artists produce provocative art works using today’s technology. Those art works seem to be hard to understand. But more and more artists become new media artists. When technology is developed, the media is changed. When the media is developed, the way of adopting arts is changed. But also it needs a suitable place to exhibit new art forms. I believe that when technology is changed, not only the way of adopting the new art forms but also the place of presenting the new art is changed for better understanding of new art forms using contemporary technology. Therefore, the New Museum aims to express new art forms in today’s technology. To do that, the New Museum for Contemporary Technology should be an unconventional museum which follows the New Media Principle: Remediation, Discrete Representation, Modularity, Variability, and Transcoding.
