I''ve seen this line of questioning almost completely disappear in the past two years due to many research studies and reports on the value and rise of participation, but in 2006-7, social media and participatory culture was still seen as nascent (and possibly a passing fad).

My strategy is: make it work really well, research what works and doesn't, and share the design lessons with the world. Maybe not. My model is the shining star. His is the virus.

We think about this redefinition of affinity not just in terms of our programming but our internal structures as well. If we don't focus on designing for bridging, it won't happen. As we developed new 3rd Friday community festivals , we were careful to design them as intergenerational experiences. Bridging is another story.

My story is about radical educational philosophy. I'm a strong believer in free-choice learning, and I see museums as places to circumvent the hazards of compulsory education and support a democratic, engaged society of learners.
