Dr. Bernadette Peters' provocative 2011 report, Whose Cake is it Anyway? Five years later, project director Dr. Piotr Bienkowski's final report for Our Museum tells a different story.

In 2011, in the name of raising money for the Special Olympics, I participated in the Polar Plunge. As a native Texan going to graduate school in Wisconsin, I signed up on a sunny September day not only to support the cause, but also because it seemed like something that would make for a good story one day.

By November of 2010, I had a business plan for the cafe and intended to start raising money in 2011. But I didn't know how much I would come to love the city, the mountains, the beach, and the people--hippies, surfers, students, anarchists, artists, geeks, farmers, dreamers of all kinds. I knew we were moving somewhere nice.

Now we have smartphones, whose data, when strung together forms the story of our lives. I can’t remember when I first heard, our identity is the story we repeat to ourselves. Our Stories. Today we have a wild abundance to the ways we collect our stories. What emerges is a story – your story.

which followed a very strict formula that frustrated some participants who wanted to be treated like artists, not contributors to a data experiment.

Originally posted in April of 2011, just before I hung up my consulting hat for my current job at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History.
