Dubai Plans a Massive New Museum for Digital Art

Dubai has announced plans for a new Museum of Digital Art (MODA), a major institution dedicated to digital and tech-driven art. The museum is part of a $27 billion transformation of Dubai's financial district into a technology hub, and will feature immersive and interactive experiences. No budget or completion date has been set, but Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, chairperson of Dubai Culture, stated the museum advances the city's commitment to converging creativity and technology. The museum will be designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, the firm behind the Burj Khalifa.
