In his talk, Douglas McLennan stresses the importance of technology in the world of culture and describes how it can connect, improve and measure everything it touches. Proper use of technologies allows us, among other things, to get to know our audience better, to draw up questionnaires with the right questions and to obtain results on what we can do for lovers of music. By way of summary, we can quote one of his conclusions; “Today no experience is complete until it is shared”.
