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.

The Walker Art Center is turning its teen website over to the teens. You can drag a literal splitter bar across the page and view a community-created site blinged out by the teens or the business site for funders and professionals. Recognizing the power of the mullet, they put the business-end up front and the party in the back.

For many museums, visitor research--how people use the museum, navigate exhibits, and understand content--may be an equally important arena in which to adopt groundswell listening techniques. Yes, the Exploratorium is also present in these arenas as a "talker" (more on that next week), but it is just one voice among thousands.

There is no dissonance between the museum’s formal voice and laminate and the visitors’ pens and paper. I saw teens and adults who sat and did this activity for 45 minutes and wasn’t surprised to hear that some people spend over an hour on it.
