I have a confession to make: I've never cared much about museums on the Web. When smart people talk about digital museums and virtual experiences, I nod and compartmentalize it as someone else's bailiwick. And it breaks a lot of conventional rules about museum homepages. Is this the future of all museum websites?

When the music video was not focused on Mexican culture, no such change occurred. This blog is about shared learning, and I went to engineering school.

A good rule of thumb is to pick a location based on your idea—not the other way around. Find a physical location.

Dan writes about the explicit and implied "rules" of participation for musicians that create great music both onstage and for the crowd. This is an issue we are actively grappling with at our museum. At many museums, the curatorial process is completely closed and undiscoverable --"don''t call us, we''ll call you."
