If people on the street are talking about X, the museum should be talking about X too. I used to work at The Tech Museum of Innovation in San Jose, CA. Our mandate was to be the museum of Silicon Valley--not of its material history, but its pulse of innovation. The pedestals will keep changing with the times.

What does your museum have to say about it? What do visitors expect of museums, and what do museums expect of themselves, when it comes to timeliness?
