On September 25th the Déri Museum opens its permanent exhibition introducing the city's poets. The MOME TechLab team was trusted with rendering the exhibition in a playful and attractive manner. In the exhibition the poet's thoughts circulate upon the walls in the room of Gábor Oláh. From the writers being introduced, new faces - and corresponding poems - can be (re-)arranged and further a discourse in literature is encouraged. The creative minds behind these applications are: Gáspár Hajdú, Dániel Karasz, Gábor Papp, Zsófia Ruttkay and Róbert Sárosi.

Zsófia Ruttkay is one of the invited presentors on the XII. National Convocation of Museum Pedagogy, where she talks about the MOME theoretical institute's and the TechLab's joint course, named Digital Museum. Within the framework of this course, held for the fourth time with this fall, the interdisciplinary teams consisting of students from MOME and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics give recommendations to leading museums on how they can apply digital technologies to enhance the experience provided by them. The event's host is LUMU - consequently, the student project dubbed " Artpiece-Analysis-Machine" is one of the examples in the presentation.
