My goals are two-fold: to develop a dynamic, creative, social platform for my community and to distribute its successful elements to other civic learning institutions (museums, libraries, community centers). There's a whole section of this blog called Unusual Projects and Influences. Louis were quick to add, 'It's not a museum.'

Like many people who've worked in science centers and interactive experience museums, I've always been perplexed by the fact that hands-on workshop audiences top out around age 14. They are more than just workshop spaces--they are member institutions, like museums. Isn't this one of our dreams for museums?

The thing that excites me about this is not the opportunity to use all the weird-colored cardstock hanging around the supply cabinets of most museums. In museums, we are often struggling to find deeper ways to encourage people to engage with each others' opinions and to learn collaboratively and relationally.

Answers will differ depending on who's asking, but they are also influenced by the designed environment in which questions are asked.

There's a tag applied to many Museum 2.0 posts called "Unusual Projects and Influences." Posts under that tag tend to examine non-museum things, from malls to games to ad campaigns , and draw some design lessons for museums from their foreignness. How can museums become part of rather than set away from the everyday?

Would you go to a museum of bad visitor-generated content? Museums are designed spaces, and I'd venture to answer no--that I wouldn't enjoy or return to a museum that featured random visitor-created crap--even if I appreciated the fact that it was enabling visitors to have a quality learning experience. Absolutely.

A museum experience I’ll always remember: In 2002, I worked at the Boston Museum of Science with a program in which high school students from a nearby charter school spent half their school time at the museum. They took regular classes, museum-specific classes, and had internship-style museum jobs.

If anyone out there is considering creating an industry catch-all site for museum-related content, I highly recommend Gamasutra as a model. Two of the articles that most influenced me were written by Don Carson, Disney imagineer turned video game designer, about "environmental storytelling." In my head, I say, “I am in a museum.

As a poet, I know how a wide range of poets over a few hundred years have influenced my work. I spoke to them on different days, so I've taken some liberty with structure here, but their words are maintained intact. The whole process of developing an exhibition tends to get stuck behind a museum's doors. So I keep updating it.

Over time, she encountered the music in multiple locations--in a symmetrical architectural space, with family.

But today I started thinking about some of our design influences, and how we got into this thing in the first place. It's about economics.

The reward for participants of having your contribution displayed is fairly and clearly structured. Participating in this made me wonder: could a museum or library run a project like 3six5?

What if visitors could stream into the museum, with the expectation that at some point they would encounter a staff member who could facilitate the purchase of admission?

When we talk about making museums or performing arts organizations more participatory and dynamic, those changes are often seen as threatening to the traditional arts experience. Museums no longer showed human horns alongside historic documents; theaters made differentiations among types of live entertainment. I can't wait.
