At the expo ‘Symbolism in Belgium’, you can use iBeaken to view extra texts and images from thirty works of art on your own smartphone.

iBeaken is first and foremost a ‘storyteller’ that makes a work of art come to life with an extensive description, remarkable details and fascinating anecdotes.

 

You don’t need to download an application. A browser like safari, internet explorer, firefox or opera is sufficient.

 

Connecting is very easy : at the exhibition entrance at level -3, activate your WIFI and select the ‘iBeaken’ network.

Launch your browser and a login window will pop on automatically after a few seconds.

 

You can read texts about works marked by an iB icon in english, dutch and french.

The use of WIFI and iBeaken is free of charge.

 

You have access to iBeaken with :

-                     All smartphones with WIFI and internet browser

-                      PocketPC (e.g. iPaq) with WIFI and internet browser

-                     PSP with WIFI and internet browser

-                     iPod touch
