ABOUT US   In classical Greek, "LINON" was most famously the thread Ariadne gave Theseus to lead him out of the Minotaur's labyrinth. Of course, museums and exhibitions are far from being labyrinthine, but orientation is still the key goal of our audioguides - helping visitors both to find their way through the exhibits and better understand their context and the links between them. But we also want to spin the thread that runs through your visitors' tours, helping your audience to read exhibits in greater depth and, knowing more, see more. Each exhibit is the bearer of knowledge, insights, cultural history and biography, and our aim is to guide visitors into and through this treasure house, using carefully selected items – but naturally not all exhibits since, as Heraclitus pointed out, "Much learning does not teach understanding". But beyond our commitment to elaborating the context of exhibits, we are also committed to our core goal – clear, comprehensible and concise texts to awaken the hearer's own interest. And here, crucially, we believe this can be realized without sacrificing scholarly accuracy. We aim to make exhibits accessible – and we are familiar with a whole series of ways to do just that, from the classical audio commentary to texts designed as dialogues or short dramatic pieces. Music too can play a key role and offers more than just a pleasant underlay; for example, a Paul Klee painting gains an additional dimension when combined with Arnold Schönberg's music. And sometimes, the best commentary is the original interview with a museum expert whose insights and enthusiasm enthrall every listener. The key factor, though, in our approach is the nature of your exhibition and the content you need to transmit. Here too, "form follows function" - in our audioguides, just as in all our other media services, from information and display panels to multimedia presentations, or audio books for specific exhibitions. But we don't imagine that simply because something is feasible, it has to be realized. Our threads are not there to entrap the listener - but help them enjoy an exciting and stimulating journey into new areas of knowledge!
