Nina has written a fantastic book engagement called The Participatory Museum. A third argues that the project won’t be truly participatory unless users get to define what content is sought in the first place. I’ve been using these participatory categories to talk about how we’d like users to participate in different projects.

Last month, the Irvine Foundation put out a new report, Getting In On the Act , about participatory arts practice and new frameworks for audience engagement. I've often been asked about examples of participatory practice in theater, dance, and classical music, and this report is a great starting point.

I'm reminded of the March of Dimes - flickr contest - that asked people to photograph where they kept their change because a handful of change is what preemie weighs at birth. I read a post about user-generated content from the fresh+new blog which is focused on new media in museums. Not sure if this includes a cash prize.

On October 20, a young woman named Kate will move into Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry and live there for a month. This post is not about the Month at the Museum concept or implementation. Instead, this post focuses on a fascinating aspect of Month at the Museum: the video applications. That will come later.

When I announced the contest, I thought there was one important book missing, Shel Israel's Twitterville. The runner up winner was Maureen Dowd from Open Museum What I propose to do with the library you are offering is read it, try it, share it, and let you know how it works for me, my colleagues and the people we influence.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
