More impressive exhibition work from Pentagram. This time an exhibit within the of the Music Experience Project in Seattle on robots. So cool. [Here.]
Nice shots of the new Harley Davidson museum, designed by Abbot Miller, from the Pentagram Blog. [Here.]
From the Adobe website, a fantastic article on anthropological research methods in design development. [Here.]
Last year, I completed my certificate in Exhibition Design and Planning (still an unrealized goal, professionally unfortunately). The project that my group worked on was a redesign of an exhibit on the internment of the Japanese during WWII. I am always amazed at the stories of the survivors of the internment, including such amazing creative output. From We Make Money Not Art, a story of the Roger Shimomura and his ukiyo-e-style prints.

The Bank of Common Knowledge project featured at We Make Money Not Art. This is an excellent example of distributed, collaborative thinking in the public realm. [Here.]
The mobile phone as curated museum piece. From a French ethnographic study of teenagers. [Here.]

The Bank of Common Knowledge
The always great We Make Money Not Art just introduced me to the the Bank of Common Knowledge. A fantastic project in distributed thinking and collaborative public participation. From WMMNA's write-up:
Inspired by an Internet shaped by the collective effort of thousands of distributed agents who publicly shared their knowledge to achieve a common goal, the BCK project is based on the firm belief that creating, sharing, transmitting and exchanging knowledge in the public sphere is a key eleme… Continue

Since you're interested in design issues and collaborative networks why not consider starting a group on here that discusses design issues in museums? I think there'd be quite a bit of interest in that from this group.
Cheers!
