Museum 2.0

MAY 9, 2007

In January, I interviewed Sibley about the potential use of virtual worlds and Second Life by museums, but in the four months since then, the virtual world platform--and the hype around it--has exploded. It seems that Second Life is both the closest and farthest thing from many museum professionals' minds. Collaborative Experience.

This Black History Month, we reflect on the strategy work that our team does through our partnership with the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture —much of which centers around expanding access. And for those who have, they quickly understand that the Museum has much more to offer than can be absorbed in a day.

In this report, the authors describe three specific models for public participation: contribution, collaboration, and co-creation. In the collaborative model, visitors are invited to serve as active partners in the creation of an institutional project which is originated and ultimately controlled by the institution.

You can collaborate with other nonprofits in your region or in your issue area to investigate whether you can all offer benefits for each other. For example, if you join a modern art museum, there is a good chance you won’t have to pay admission to other modern art museums. Consult with an attorney if you plan to do this.

Jane McGonigal and the folks from IFTF have released a new future-casting game/collaborative experience called Signtific Lab. Here's how Signtific works (their rules here ): The organizing institution presents a three-minute video exploring a "what if?" In other words, a new kind of talkback board or participatory educational program.

Yeah, the Whaling Museum in New Bedford. I’ve been to the Whaling Museum in New Bedford. We’ve collaborated on some content. So I’m going to shut off my video, and then I’ll bring it back on later, okay? How do you structure your database? Steven: And it’s not 2:00 a.m. Robin: Yes.

In the case of Slavery in New York , the end of the exhibition featured a story-capture station at which visitors could record video responses to a series of four questions about their reactions to the exhibition. This is the opposite situation of the previous design goal, one typical in science and children's museums.

I've been designing game-like experiences with museums for a long time. We rarely talk about this when we design museum exhibits. It had a very simple structure. What does it mean to play well in your museum? But this week, I participated in a game design workshop with Ken Eklund that totally changed my perspective.

On June 4, we opened The Tech Virtual Test Zone , a new 2000 sq ft gallery at The Tech Museum of Innovation featuring exhibits on the theme of art, film, and music that were originally developed in Second Life by a community of creative amateurs. Some museum pros have been puzzled by this.

danah boyd has a post called " On Being Virtual " (be sure to read the comments) As Kevin Gamble on the SLED list notes, what she seems to be saying is that if you look at the rise of social tech amongst young people, it's not about divorcing the physical social structures to live virtually. text, graphics and video?

Each week they asked their Twitter followers to contribute a movement and then the company performed them and posted a video on YouTube. How to structure crowd sourced philanthropy based on voting or feedback depends on the outcomes of the project, a theory of change. How do you measure the impact of the crowd here? .

I've thought long and hard about how video editing amplifies my compulsive nature and how I need to reduce my ratio of video minutes viewed per hours of editing time! s why: (1) The folder structure of your favorites list is not always flexible enough to allow for easy cross referencing. (2) Tagging in Art Museums.

Was it a museum professional or an outsider? I'm kneedeep in the final run-up to the opening of Operation Spy at the Spy Museum, but in the fleeting moments between disasters and near-disasters, I'm thinking about AAM. Several were created or conceived by a single person, often an artist/non-museum professional.
