In Real Life: Mapping digital cultural engagement in the first decades of the 21st Century

Tuesday July 6th, 2021

In Real Life: Mapping digital cultural engagement in the first decades of the 21st Century explores arts and cultural participation in an environment increasingly influenced by digital technology. 

Produced through a partnership between the Australia Council for the Arts and National Arts Council Singapore, the report provides insights and guidance for the cultural and creative industries as they grapple with the implications of digital transformation.  

The research is based on a wide-ranging literature review including scholarly articles, books, industry reports and media articles. 

In Real Life adds to the Australia Council’s growing body of work on digital engagement, including the Audience Outlook Monitor research which is tracking audience sentiment and behaviour through the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as previous research on professional artists, arts participation,  blockchain and music exports.

The report paves the way for the Australia Council’s broader research and capacity building in digital cultural engagement.  

In Real Life will be followed by the Council’s publication of its Digital Cultural Strategy.
