It’s indicative of the ways the museum world to me is a very conservative world. For example, I talked today to someone from the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago, Juana Guzman, and they have fabulous ideas about connecting to community, saying we must connect in really integral ways with those people whom we serve.

I read recently about an awesome project at the San Jose Museum of Art in 2001, Collecting Our Thoughts, in which visitors were invited to write the labels for an art exhibition (more another time). I remember the first time an artist friend of mine took me to a museum and I watched him laugh at some of the art. Then a number.

For example, Gary Vikan at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore is starting the Center for Applied Research in the Arts to explore new ways to fulfill the museum’s mission, drawing from fields of study not usually associated with research in art museums, such as anthropology and neuroscience, and theoretical work on cognitive behavior and creativity.

When I was in Taiwan, I heard again and again from museum professionals: "We are very conservative in Taiwanese museums. But I did see something that inspired me quite a lot: a gorgeous, innovative setting for visitors to sit, chat, explore art, and rest.

ID3 tags - can use itunes for this, drag album art and file over. let’s you listen to mp3 format before you upload it to be sure it sounds right, add tags, etc. The tags let a program that is reading the file know what is on the file, so it’s more than the file name but the title, the time, genre, etc.
