Museum 2.0

MARCH 28, 2008

Being a trusted source of information can be a barrier that keeps us from sharing content with visitors that might be more contemporary, more ambiguous, more contentious--information that may not be trusted. It makes us uncomfortable with opening museum content up to comment, tagging, and alterations by visitors. Be personal.

Eric talked about how the New York Hall of Science is trying to fund risk-taking, not just talk about it or under-resource it. In particular, we had a great group of 15 talking about participatory history experiences on Sunday. Participatory art and co-creation on the rise.

I'm not talking about guiding content; I'm talking about guiding form. If your goal is to encourage visitors to perceive themselves as partners in the content co-creation experience, make room for their thoughts sooner rather than later.

As I imagined a world without Nina Simon ’s Participatory Museum , I felt sad about all the visitors whose voices (and post-it note comments) weren’t honored. Research suggests that effective social media isn’t just about shilling but instead about sharing valuable content. The work is 24/7 and the pay can be 7/11.

David is a journalist turned entrepreneur who has written for Wired , Seed , Columbia Journalism Review and The New York Times. Now, it's almost not even breaking news to say that newspapers are facing, to be quite frank, an economic death spiral. If life is a chessboard, content is still king.

Usually, the institution wants to maintain some control--whether over where the content comes from or how it is selected and organized. In this way, Click is a powerful example of the "venue as content platform" definition of 2.0. We are just providing the container, the mechanism so it can function. They kept the interface simple.

This week, I'm launching a new site: the Voicemail Museum. It's an experiment that merges two of my greatest interests: finding novel, easy ways for visitors to contribute content to museums finding questions that draw such compelling responses that random peoples' answers would be worth browsing To participate, all you need is a phone.

It's rare that a participatory museum project is more than a one-shot affair. It started with a request from a group of New York Wikimedians to the Brooklyn Museum. In contrast, the Wikimedians were focused on making cultural content digitally available online using as open a licensing structure as possible.

Several libraries have started to offer gaming nights where you can drink soda and play Wii to your heart's content. The key to these benefits is not the volume of online content produced but its reach. Work with communities that relate to your content and reach desired audiences. Does this mean copping out on our core values?

By Jeff Ramos, Community and Content Manager, Games for Change When most people outside gaming think of video games, they typically fall into three buckets: "old school" games like Super Mario and Tetris, social and mobile games like Farmville and Angry Birds, or hyper-violent console games like Grand Theft Auto.

There are many different models, including The Pop-Up Museum of Queer History , The New York Met , SF Mobile Museum , and even a Pop Up Prison Museum. Having a lot of pop up museums and observing what did and didn’t work enabled us to learn more about our community while providing practical, real-life content for the organizer’s kit.

Then again, the New York Hall of Science isn’t just any science center. Now, NYSCI is experimenting in a new medium, with a very tough and adult content focus. I sat down with Eric Siegel, NYSCI’s Director and Chief Content Officer, to learn more about False Conviction. This interview is not really about an ebook.

The sensibility is the content and the style with which the engagement happens. I've written before about the difference between participatory processes and products , but this question of frameworks and sensibility is more broadly applicable to community engagement strategies. But it's far more typical to focus on just one.

The NAS publishes one such report every business day, and apparently these reports are seen as a gold standard of objective, well-researched content on a range of industries and issues. Libraries are more customer-focused, museums, more content-focused. Museums provide the information that we deem useful or interesting.
