I've often been asked about examples of participatory practice in theater, dance, and classical music, and this report is a great starting point. Why is a photography contest an example of "crowd sourcing" wheres a community drawing contest is an example of "audience-as-artist"?

It's been awhile since I've shared the progress of The Tech Virtual , the web and Second Life-based virtual exhibit workshop that The Tech Museum of Innovation opened in December of 2007. Some of these people are professional artists or exhibit designers, but most are just talented folks with an interest in museums. It's lovely.

What happens when a formal art museum invites a group of collaborative, participatory artists to be in residence for a year? Will the artists ruin the museum with their plant vacations and coatroom concerts? Will the bureaucracy of the institution drown the artists in red tape? No, this is not a reality TV show.

Pop quiz: How much does it cost to go a museum? Museums can range from free to about $30 for admission. It’s often confusing to wade through the choices: do I want the underwater pony show or the artist-led splatter tour? So why can’t museums do it? In short, the museum menu is inconsistent, and therefore confusing.

In 1990, educator and cultural critic Neil Postman described a museum as "an answer to a fundamental question: what does it mean to be a human being?" Without an explicit "I" voice, the museum's perspective on humanity is oblique to say the least. Welcome to Pine Point is not a museum project. It tells layered personal stories.
