Abstract
Today there is the possibility of including creative forms of dialogue in museums with new tools and technologies with a view to having a transdisciplinary museology and museography, which respond to contemporary approaches and the previously described complexity of heritage. It is necessary to introduce a strong affective notion, of the sensitivities, corporalities, emotionalities and concerns of the socio-technical assemblies in the process of museological reconstruction of the world. This is unthinkable if the cultures of the world are reduced to objects alien to the sentiments of the human beings who conceive and live them. The objective is to show a necessary transition-updating process for the National Museum of Cultures (Mexico) and its musical collection towards intercultural dialogue from the foundations of the critical concept of heritage, the dialogue of knowledge and the new museology. The advances in this sense are: i) management, museology and museography are carried out with these new proposals of approaches, little by little from interdisciplinary and seeking transdiscipline and cultural understanding; ii) The documentation and cataloging of specific sub-collections, such as music and sound, makes it possible to incorporate, learn about and transmit to the world’s cultures in the integral way of the dialogue of knowledge. In a novel way, key cultural actors (experts, builders, musicians, dancers, etc.) are being incorporated together with audiovisual materials that show their use, construction, mythology, among other aspects. New configurations of the museums will provide a vision of the multiple cultural realities, past and present.
