Recently, we''ve been talking at our museum about techniques for capturing compelling audio/video content with visitors. It made me dig up this 2011 interview with Tina Olsen (then at the Portland Art Museum) about their extraordinary Object Stories project. We ended up with a gallery in the museum instead.

It’s pretty normal for Western museums, for example, display objects taken from Non-Western countries. The first thing they wanted to tackle, and I’d argue the essential challenge of our work, was the relationship between museums and communities. Museum work is invisible to those not in the field, as are our norms.

Audiences are a portion of the humans in the museum ecosystem. The reason I think of a museum as human-centered is that to become audience-centered your organization has to center people. We did quick surveys and I did interviews. They often need to look to other fields (or other types of museums) for partners.
