The common museum knowledge on this issue is that adults are timid, that we have lost some of the wonder, impulsiveness, and active creativity of childhood days. If you design interactives for kids, adults recognize that the experience is not for them, and they don't engage. But I don't think that theory holds up. The colors are muted.

Two years ago, our team at the MAH embarked on our most challenging co-creation project ever. This project wove together many different participatory threads. The lessons I learned from Lost Childhoods are at the heart of the OF/BY/FOR ALL project we're building now. Short story: we learned a lot. What did we learn?

I get excited about a lot of things in my work at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History. That's how I felt when artist Ze Frank got in touch to talk about a potential museum exhibition to explore a physical site/substantiation for his current online video project, A Show (s ee minute 2:20, above).

They were off-site for the first time in years, holding a special study session sparked by an exhibition about foster youth, Lost Childhoods. Then, for an hour, former foster youth who helped design the exhibition shared their stories with supervisors. It happened because two of our Lost Childhood partners urged it into being.

Whether quietly spearheading some of the world's most groundbreaking scientific and medical research or not-so-quietly leading revolutions on the battlefield, our history is ripe with stories of ferocious, adventurous, enlightened, and persistent women. History remembers Queen Anna Nzinga as one of the great female rulers of Africa.

I keep on telling my story of how I moved between the East and West, between physical environments (architecture, urban design) and virtual (web and mobile development and strategy), between technology and the humanities. As of Febuary 2011 however, they have added a feature that goes a step beyond: streetview history.
