An internal presentation I put together to get approval for a competition that will ask people to create mashed up interfaces with our collections data. We'll make object data from our collections database created for the gallery available so that people can link it with whatever interface or datasets they think will make a great presentation for the general public.

I'm sharing it because it might help other people get similar projects approved, and because I'd love to work with other institutions who might have data that would work with ours.

Ultimately, it shouldn't be about the technology, it should be about having fun and creating new insights into our Cosmos and Culture collection.
