One of the questions that comes up most frequently when I talk with folks about participation is: what should we do with the things that visitors create? This question is a byproduct of the reality that most participatory projects have poorly articulated value. The collective outcome (a cool music video) is clear.

Looking through this frame gives us an opportunity to ask and (hopefully) answer the question ‘what needs do workers have?’ As Bolman and Deal say, framing and reframing is about giving people a palette with an array of options in order to be artists in the search for quality, commitment and creativity in organizations.

It is what it sounds like: a book of original sheet music, beautifully designed and complemented with artwork and text. There are many artistic projects that offer a template for participation, whether a printed play, an orchestral score, or a visual artwork that involves an instructional set (from community murals to Sol LeWitt).

I eagerly read about a new social psychology research study in which whites, Asians, and Latinos engaged in a simple collaborative activity--making a music video together. When the music video was not focused on Mexican culture, no such change occurred. Direct questioning. But each of these studies yields another useful nugget.

Instead, I'd like to see us asking broader questions about process, like: How do different people arbitrate the value of a piece of art, a historical artifact, or a piece of scientific evidence?
