The Possibilites of Tomorrow..a portable International Museum of Terran Arts



Is it possible for a massive structure to be portable? I had a stimulating conversation with a good friend about a portable museum, although brief, I was still taken back by the possibility. At first I dismissed the idea as momentary madness from a mentor, but upon further investigation I realized that this is indeed possible and maybe advantageous. What do you all think? Would this work? Is it possible? What are the advantages? and the drawbacks?

  2. con--portable might not be the greenest option, if green remains a priority...unless it's pedaled or powered by wind or something along those lines.

    pro--it could also be looked at as an outreach service--a means of bringing art (and history) to those who do not have access to museums, sort of like the libraries have bookmobiles.
