By a strange and lucky coincidence, I was at the Experience Music Project and Science Fiction Museum (EMPSFM) in Seattle for a two-day workshop. EMPSFM is one of a handful of museums worldwide for which the death of the King of Pop is a very big deal. Are museums only relevant when they can serve our most pressing needs?

I like to ask myself this question periodically, challenging myself to find substantive ways for visitors to contribute to our museum. They can contribute their own stories, objects, and creative work to exhibitions. Instead, they've been driven by community members who see the museum as a platform for their own creative pursuits.

So what's a museum to do--especially one that is funded to encourage youth and teen participation?

Without an explicit "I" voice, the museum's perspective on humanity is oblique to say the least. Welcome to Pine Point is not a museum project. It tells layered personal stories.
