Barcelona Cultura

What happens when…


What happens when one compares a survey’s results to the attendance data on the cultural facilities?

For a number of years now Barcelona City Council’s Institut de Cultura (ICUB) has been participating in a survey among Barcelonans (the Òmnibus municipal survey) in which the city’s people are asked, among other questions, whether or not they have taken part in a series of specific cultural activities.

On comparing the results of the survey to the attendance data for theatres, cinemas, museums and libraries, something we already knew was confirmed: instead of providing answers, data often raise additional questions.
