Museums and Big Data — Supporting Exploration, Innovation, and Audience Engag...Robert J. Stein
Today’s museums are awash in data. With so many sources of information available, an organization can be drowning in numbers, but starved for real insight. Robert Stein, former Deputy Director of the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA), will examine how museums can begin to collect and analyze data to illuminate their practice and enhance their impact on visitors. Using a unique visitor loyalty program at the DMA as a case study, he will raise questions about what “big data” in the cultural sector looks like and what insights it might provide.

It seems that today’s museums are awash in data. With so many sources of data available to us, museums can easily feel that they’re drowning in numbers, but starved for real insight. This talk will present practical ways that museums can begin to collect and analyze data to help illuminate their own practice and impact with visitors. Using a unique visitor loyalty program at the Dallas Museum of Art as a case study, this talk will raise questions about what “big data” in the cultural sector really looks like and what insights it might provide to museums.

CommentaryMotivated by politics, a group of African-American au.docxpickersgillkayne
Commentary:
Motivated by politics, a group of African-American authors became known as the
Black Arts Movement
. Preeminent in this movement was the poet Imamu Amiri Baraka. The movement stemmed from the strife following the assassination of Malcom X in 1965, and then the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1968. Those involved in the changes spreading across America, known as Black Nationalism or the
Black Power Movement
, broke into two primary branches--Revolutionary Nationalists, which included such groups as the Black Panther Party, and Cultural Nationalists, which includes the Black Arts Movement.
The expression of the Black Power Movement was evident in several ways: changes in clothing styles (dashikis, for example) adopted among several black groups, more vocal involvement in politics, and more outspoken tones in and topics of writing, speeches, and the plastic arts (sculpture and painting).
Though the Black Arts Movement began in Harlem, it quickly spread to many cities around the country. Numerous African-American magazines, publishing houses, and journals flourished during this time, such as
Negro Digest, Black World
, Third World Press,
The Black Scholar
, and Lotus Press, among others. Poetry was the predominant form of writing within this movement, but not exclusively--short stories, drama, essay, plays, and music were also key to the content of this era.
The Black Arts Movement was not without controversy. The content of its works is often cited as homophobic, exclusive, misogynistic, and anti-Semitic in favor of black identity.
The Black Arts Movement’s influence began to fade as the result of an unlikely source--success. As members such as James Baldwin, Maya Angelou, and Nikki Giovanni, among others, became popular and even wealthy as the result of the works they also became mainstream, which was an unforeseen consequence counter to the basis of the movement itself.
Recovering the History of African Americans
Attempts to recover and recognize the history of African Americans was part of the Black Power Movement. This is seen in African Americans who changed their birth names to African names. Born as Leroi Jones, Amiri Baraka, for example, changed his name in 1964. Stokely Carmichael became Kwame Ture. In Alice Walker's short story "Everyday Use," Dee returns home with the name Wangero.
Attitudes and actions that before the 1960s might have been kept private became more overt, which is evident in the essays defining the Black Arts Movement. Richard Wright's comments about African-American writers in his 1937 essay "Blueprint for Negro Writing" were no longer true. In that essay, Wright discussed black writers who "dressed in the knee-pants of servility" as they went "abegging to white America" for approval. He notes, "Negro writing was something external to the lives of educated Negroes themselves."
Instead, the arts in the 1960s were more aligned with what Du Bois wrote in 1926, when he call.

CLIFFSNOTES: Rebecca Solnit's "A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities That Arise in Disaster"
1. “Counterculture groups
played an important role, from descendants of the

that purposefulness, the immersion in service and sur-vival...”

my subject was the extraordinary communities of
volunteers that had sprung up in the

very different from the locals, emotionally and cul-turally.
(p.288)
6. “Of course that was a movement that came out of
the black churches of the South, and so it was

African American
population suffered in the hot, filthy ruinous city.”
(p.240)

American man who’d been in New Or-leans
all his life.”
(p.288)

descendants of the black power movement to hordes of
young white anarchists.”
(p.281)
12. “A stocky, red-haired earnest
young manwho had recently
graduated from Columbia University...”
(p.300)
13. “For acted upon, given a role, this is a love that
builds society, resilience, community, purpose, and
meaning.”
(p.306)
