Lumin at Detroit Institute of Art Now on to the interactives…I’ve been thinking a great deal about the function of interactives in museums. We often use them to add in extra content we couldn’t get into the label or assess people’s learning. In this case, I find the most interesting ones to be made by artists.

Our curator writes labels about licking the art. Eric talked about how the New York Hall of Science is trying to fund risk-taking, not just talk about it or under-resource it. Merilee Mostov and the Columbus Museum of Art. Participatory art and co-creation on the rise. I found this idea really powerful.

Volumes of dry-as-dirt content. I met one of these data artists last year while visiting a friend/journalist at the New York Times. His name is Mark Hansen, a UCLA statistician, and he was working on the finishing touches of the installation of Moveable Type in the lobby of the new Times building (shown above).

I once asked Eric Siegel, the Director of the New York Hall of Science, why museums are rarely innovative shining stars on the cutting edge of culture. This is the model that governs most businesses and artistic endeavors. What drives people through your door, gets them excited, and connects them passionately with your content?

But Wally Wood inspired this post, and got me thinking about how we approach the task of content creation. To make ends meet, artists would sometimes team up as a studio — helping each other come up with ideas, chipping in when someone was in danger of missing a deadline, teaching each other tips and tricks.

But this week, two articles about art, in the NYT and the Washington Post Magazine respectively, called out to be combined into a post about the role of visitors in art interpretation. What do we look for in art museums?

If we're talking about an an artist working in the context of an art museum, it's likely that the genius' work will be presented with minimal interpretation. Labels will reference the importance of her work in the context of the art world. The curator and any educators will work around and noticeably behind the artist herself.

We generate all our revenue at the ticket counter, and since we can't draw a straight line from adding to the collection to increasing ticket sales, we don't actively seek out new artifacts. Serving critics may mean pursuing exhibits that are inaccessible to non-art people, thus limiting your potential audience. They're like banks.
