Editor's Notes
- http://www.giantrobot.com/blogs/daniel/uploaded_images/RIMG0008-719303.JPG
- Ask questions: Does anyone know who this artist is? How does this canvas look different from a still life painting of fruit? Do you feel rhythm when you look at this painting?
- Unless they take a guided tour, visitors don’t spend enough time with artwork in a museum and they leave without a good appreciation of what they just experienced.
- We chose to focus on the Whitney museum to see if we could improve the educational experience. We liked that it was museum focused on modern art and that they were experimental. And they would most likely be open to technology for improving the museum experience,
- We did a field study of the the visitors of the whitney. To find out if people came in singles, groups how did they interact with the artwork.
- And learned that most visitors don’t come to the museum alone. We saw people in groups or pairs and they liked to share whether it would be talking about the art or some other conversation related to their lives
- In addition to the Whitney, 1. we visited the MoMA 2.Cooper-Hewitt and We also found that the SFMoMA has a nifty iPhone app for its new rooftop garden.

- some of the tours that we found were 1. moma audio tour, where you punch in the number of the artwork to hear the curators statement, there was no headphone and you hold it up to your ear. 2. the ipod touch at the cooper hewitt had slideshows and photos, email of your comments, but most people were looking at the device more than the art. 3. and the sfmoma has treats images well, you can share and tweet. mostly for planning

- None of these felt truly interactive, like they were an integral part of the visit. And the follow-up from the Cooper-Hewitt was nothing more than a tally of the things we’d seen.
- We were interested in learning more about art education, so we spoke with Joseph. (talk about VTS and other methods) *** important that viewers can connect what they see with what they already know
- Talked with Ben about his experiences as a designer of an audio tour for a sculpture garden.
- key finding! BAM!
- Through their participation they become part of the history surrounding a work of art. mention audience and features: • iPod Touch with RFID reader, allowing for location-awareness within the museum • Visitors who arrive together have a shared experience through the networked devices • A visitor’s path is recorded and sent to his or her email along with extra information and resources.
- With concept in hand, we began sketching.
- first wireframes were in whiteboard form
- create paper prototypes that we could use to walk people around in our “fake museum” in studio
- made more refined wireframes
- tested those in a stationary position to check for fluidity
- made refined designs from what we learned!
