Through case studies such as the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art and the Canadian Centre for Architecture, speakers emphasise the importance of museums as evolving platforms for interaction, community engagement, and contemporary discourse. Shifting from physical to digital spaces, Borasi and Puga stress the need for adaptable architectural designs, and the significance of architecture in fostering dialogue and understanding across different temporalities and cultural contexts.The audio series is produced by KoozArch Studio for Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain.
