Museum 2.0

OCTOBER 10, 2016

Museum technology nerds: this post is for you. I've been thinking recently about distributed content experiences--ways for people to interact with museum content (art, history, science, etc.) as they make their way through the world outside the museum. At the museum? but none of them are great. Who's tackling them?

The book is a deep account of repatriation of spiritual objects from museums to native people, written by museum people and Blackfoot people together. This story starts in 1960s, though of course, the story of the Blackfoot people and their dealings with museums started way before that. But not to keep.

Who thinks social service organizations should fly under the same banner as those that organize the public for political change? It only came into general usage in the 1970s, with the publication of influential reports by the Filer Commission. In a recent chapter on the history of the U.S. I mean, really.

In early January, the American Museum of Natural History announced that it would hold a Brain Tweetup for 75 of its Twitter followers. When I attend a museum alone, I like to take my time reflecting on the collection and the space. Notes from a Tweetup by Jay Geneske. Would we easily socialize or personally connect?

It was then that I began working at a local art museum as a volunteer. CA: One of the best things that happened to me while volunteering for the local art museum is they funded my travel to Los Angeles and my tuition to take the week-long grant writing training bootcamp hosted by The Grantsmanship Center.

I''ve mostly seen museums employ one of two methods for formal community advisors: Create special "spots" on the board of trustees for certain kinds of community representatives. CON: can feel disconnected from the primary governance of the museum or can feel like a second-class board overall. I struggle with both these options.

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. History: Simply being around a long time has some cachet and may mean you have access to historical wisdom, knowledge, and records. You just need to show proof of membership. These exist already!

Others are looking at no demand at all, and with it, no revenue, because their mission involved gathering large groups of people in places like theaters, galleries, and museums. So, you would think that the most pressing skill to build is in revenue generation, like fundraising , government grants, or fee-for-service programs.

As a public history practitioner, I know that reform will always be insufficient. It means utilizing a new kind of governing and decision-making process that de-centers accumulating or usurping power. It means changing how we educate people and the value (or lack of value) we place on certain kinds of education.

As a platform for such local activity, more participatory forms of engagement are already envisaged—an area “culture pass” for museums and arts institutions is one exciting example—to further stimulate local activity. Given this history, it is unsurprising that interest in alternative currency was rekindled in the wake of the Great Recession.
