Mary Warner, the Museum Manager at the Historical Society, wrote a series of moving articles for her museum newsletter and later for the AASLH’s Small Museum Online Community about her experiences tackling big issues in a small museum. How do we get the history of the poor? But how did this specific project get started?

In the most extreme cases, I've talked to folks from museums that are government-mandated to provide all content in multiple languages who say they are unable to invite visitors to make comments because they'd have to translate all of them and simply can't dedicate the resources to do so.

Song Reader didn''t come as a CD, or an LP, or a bunch of digital audio files. It is what it sounds like: a book of original sheet music, beautifully designed and complemented with artwork and text. Beck''s project is unusual because he deliberately resurrected a mostly-defunct participatory platform: sheet music for popular songs.

But I’d been scribbling notes for an art museum label post for awhile, and then yesterday, the NY Times had a review of a new show at MOMA, Comic Abstraction. MOMA has standard art museum labels. When I asked an art museum educator about this (“How should I look at art?”) The review was harsh. Is this enough? I’m begging here.

What happens when a formal art museum invites a group of collaborative, participatory artists to be in residence for a year? Will the artists ruin the museum with their plant vacations and coatroom concerts? But for museum and art wonks, it could be. Will the bureaucracy of the institution drown the artists in red tape?

I've become convinced that successful paths to participation in museums start with self-identification. The easiest way to do that is to acknowledge their uniqueness and validate their ability to connect with the museum on their own terms. Who is the "me" in the museum experience? Not so at museums.

Then I went to a museum exhibition yesterday featuring a computer interactive component with a lousy interface, and thought, Yes. This week, an audio mixing game called Break in the Road. Like many DJ games, you have access to many audio pieces which you can lay on multiple tracks, mash up, etc., A woman humming in the window.

Someday we want to collect audio and video, too, but we’d need a pretty serious operating budget to do that and at least one full-time employee. This Pop Up Library just returned from a folk music festival. One lives a double life as a soul music collector and DJ. Geography is fluid, though.

This means you receive real-time audio data while running about your progress (updates each mile), and later, can review your run stats online. In many ways, it's the IDEAL inspiration for museums seeking to create a pervasive, sticky visitor experience that extends beyond the visit and is not totally screen-bound. Nice provisions.

I particularly like the MP3 experiments , events at which Improv Everywhere distribute an audio file to people for free as a podcast. Participants gather in a physical venue with their own digital audio players, and everyone hits “play” at the same time. The recording starts with two and a half minutes of music without talking.

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. The kinds of connections people make when playing games or looking at comics are different than those made with film, text, or any number of more traditional media used in museums.

You can procure items that encourage residents to explore the city in a fun way, such as local restaurant gift certificates or tickets to museums or sports games. Then, each attendee will wear the headphones and start dancing to the music! If this event is virtual, you can tell the story online through videos, images, and audio.

You can do this by visiting a Black history museum or African American heritage site, by reading and sharing books written by Black authors, and by exploring Black music history. Take the time to educate yourself about the contributions of Black communities to the history of your nation.

Skeptics doubted the iPod in 2001 , but it went on to help revolutionize how people consume music and audio content. The platform lends itself to investments in high-definition movies, high-resolution photos, and audio-clips — stories that help reveal "what your support is accomplishing."

But what works best, music, humor, entertainment, surprise, relatability. It’s focused on music and video effects. And what I do love is that TikTokers, they take trends, they put their own spin on them, and the linked music and the hashtags are kind of the common thread pulling everything together. So it sounds awesome.
