overlooked at AAM: the MUSE awards announced

The MUSE awards were announced at AAM this week, and the list represents an interesting overview of museum technology activity.

Denver Art Museum: Report on In-Gallery Interpretive Installations

The Denver Art Museum has released a report about installed interpretives for adults in the museum’s new Hamilton Building. The new galleries gave DAM staff the opportunity to experiment with a wide range of interpretive experiences that encourage visitors to interact with art in new and different ways.  The main report outlines their thinking and lessons learned and the appendix describes each of the interpretives in more depth.
