That's how I felt when artist Ze Frank got in touch to talk about a potential museum exhibition to explore a physical site/substantiation for his current online video project, A Show (s ee minute 2:20, above). He is an authoritative artist of the social web with a slew of accolades and a suite of diverse projects under his belt.

The Denver Art Museum is no stranger to community collaborations, but we’ve been dipping in our toe a little more deeply when it comes to developing permanent participatory installations. This summer’s Museum-wide celebration of textiles, Spun , consists of fourteen exhibitions and “moments” (most temporary, some permanent).

The World Beach Project is managed by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London with artist-in-residence Sue Lawty.

It's not the extent to which they are participatory. Why are museums going in the other direction, trying to become more consistent rather than celebrating their idiosyncrasies? They may employ local artists to help create visitor experiences. But when I really think about it, all my favorites (so far) have one thing in common.

Last month, I met an artist who was part of a group that created a renegade podcast tour for the Portland Art Museum. The participatory element employs an accessible speculative question. The participatory element is modeled well by the "official" content. I enjoyed listening to it (virtually, not at the museum).
