The iPhone 8 is designed to handle AR. Beyond the immediate future, we will most certainly see AR gear and physical triggers take up less space over time—tablets to phones, glasses to contact lenses, and at some point, maybe the only tool we’ll need is our brain. Google just released its own AR developer kit called ARCore.

  I've written about  how nonprofits can use it , including arts organizations like the Brooklyn Museum as chronicled on Shelley Bernstein's blog. Back in December, the Brooklyn Museum started to experiment with FourSquare running a promotion to get people to check in and get a free membership.

For many arts/museum professionals, writing text in 100-word chunks is a daily activity. There are great references for better art writing, but we don''t always use them. Now I find Hemingway infiltrating my brain when writing almost anything--including this blog post. Exhibit labels. Promotional text. Grant proposals.

Dear Museums on Twitter, Thanks for experimenting in a new and largely uncharted online environment. So here is a list of suggestions that hopefully will improve the way your museum thinks about using Twitter. Or it's rainy so you suggest I visit the museum? I am a museum of Native Cultures and Art!"

I just got home from the Museums and the Web conference in Indianapolis. I’d never attended before and was impressed by many very smart, international people doing radical projects to make museum collections and experiences accessible and participatory online. Instead, I found a standard art museum. Impersonal guards.

Seb Chan has a lovely, long interview up at Fresh+New with Helen Whitty about the Powerhouse Museum's new mini-exhibition, the Odditoreum. The Odditoreum is another wrinkle in the study of visitors' understanding and interpretation of authenticity in museums. I enjoyed listening to it (virtually, not at the museum).

He is Deputy Director for the Contemporary Jewish Museum , and an expert in using social media in a museum setting. He welcomed me to the Bay Area and asked if I would be interested in doing some trainings for the local arts community. One thing led to another and I designed a social media lab for arts organizations.

Let's say you're a young person eager to break into museums. Over my first year in museums, I worked at five different institutions as an educator, exhibit builder, exhibit cleaner, art model, and whatever else I could find. Now, several years of full-time museum work later, I'm consulting.

I have seen the future of interpretative design, and that future is data visualization. And yet, over the last few years, as the web has unlocked piles of information, a quiet group of math-minded designers are figuring out how to interpret the vast impersonalness of data and make it both beautiful and meaningful. Huge swaths of words.

Really, this is only the tip of a very long fun/good list that would include spending time with my tough and tender little boy, taking him to museums, restaurants, parks, the climbing gym, letting him ride his bike to his friend's house. Supporting art and artists, writers and books. I love how he comes home smelling like fire and mud.

Thanks to Kyle Evans, who forwarded me the fascinating, lengthy master’s dissertation.art: Situating Internet Art in the Modern Museum by Karen Verschooren at the MIT Comparative Media Studies program. In it, Karen provides a survey of the evolving relationship of Internet art to art museums. On the website?

He notes that film, music, visual art, and literature have evolved as media that are used in all kinds of environments, from the mundane to the profound. Scott McCloud makes a similar argument for "sequential art" in his excellent book Understanding Comics. Supposedly it improves your brain function.

And then of course there are blogs, in which millions of people are airing their brains out daily or weekly for everyone—and anyone—to watch and comment on. How can museums learn from it? When I see something truly breath-taking, I want to understand all the bits of it, whether it’s a piece of art, a commercial, or a boxing match.

Our volunteers are the heart and soul and brains and heavy lifters (figuratively and-- when you have boxes of books involved-- literally) of our organization. Fostering new connections is also why we prefer collaborative programming with other arts and education groups as opposed to developing everything internally.

This year, the American Association of Museums annual conference was in Los Angeles (my hometown). I hosted two sessions, one on design for participation and the other on mission-driven museum technology development. Design for Participation Is there any better ingredient for a successful conference session than a banjo?

Well, that 80%, 60% of that money goes to large institutional organizations like hospitals and universities, and large cultural institutions, like museums, zoos, and libraries, and religious organizations. Or something you know about them that you maybe you just saw them at an art gallery or something like that.
