Not sure if your speech has been delivered yet, but National Public Radio provided a nice, concrete example of how museums can ease some daily suffering: "In Tulsa, Okla., the Philbrook Museum of Art is doing something different with outdoor space t…
Oh, and to give an example of my thinking--I am in the planning stage of a large community collaborative of projects related to diabetes and healthy living--using the Through the Eyes of the Eagle exhibit as a catalyst for a collaborative community…
Elaine, I'd love to read your speech and share it with colleagues here. You know, museums as collaborators with others--libraries, social service organizations, public health units, schools, cultural centers etc is the way to go. Why can't museums s…

In your posts you mentioned that you would be happy to provide a copy of your paper on Museum as a soup kitchen .. is it posted online? I saw the press reports of your speech at the Powerhouse Museum, but have not been able to track the paper as a whole. My email is sgibsonrwp@gmail.com if it is something you are able to provide. Thanks

- Hi Elaine. I sent you an email at egurian@egurian.com, asking for your comment on my interpretation of 'institutional trauma' for my MA thesis. Would you have the chance to answer to a remote email from Portugal?? I'm an optimist, so I'll believe you will be able to answer it sooner or later! :-) Best to you. Vania.

Kate Stone said… - Hi Elaine, I just stumbled on your suggestions for unconference sessions at MW 2009 for the first time, re training curators and org structure. These are 2 things I am spending most time on at the moment. Tho' at the conference I didn't hear either topic addressed or discussed - was I in the wrong sessions?!

- Dear Elaine:
I am an Argentinean researcher working in the media lab, university of art and design, Finland. I have been working for sometime in museums.
I am eager to cooperate with you and help in your project, in case I can.
I have one article that I published in the CMD (Centro Metropolitano de diseño) magazine IF. This one is translated in English. It is about the new tendencies in museums towards participation.
I might have other texts, both in Spanish and English, but they do not have straight translations.
I am now preparing an article for a magazine that comes in 3 languages: Spanish, English and catalonian. They have lots of materials in the three languages. http://www.mnactec.cat/castellano/informatiu_sistema.htm
By the way, I travel to Argentina every year.
My mail is msalgado@taik.fi
Contact me and I send you the article.
yours,
mariana
