Pull techniques invite visitors to actively retrieve content of interest, rather than consuming content "pushed" indiscriminately by the museum. There are indicated hotspots in the site which activate interpretative material when the flashlights light on them.

It's not topic-specific; I've done these exercises with art, history, science, and children's museums to useful effect. What's the value of this activity?
