Back in 2008, I devised a plan to outsource my New Year''s Resolutions. We ran with it and have since generated data about decision-making, cooperation, competition and negotiation for scientists (and also some artists) to play with. Experimonth started out as play. And my museum, and this new model, as a space for them to do so.

I've long admired this museum for its all-encompassing commitment to community co-creation , and the visit was a kind of pilgrimage to their new site (opened in 2008).

Have Fun - Do Good

JANUARY 16, 2009

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out. I'm an artist and an institution builder. The kind of art I do is art that gets engaged into the public.
