United we Stand
This document provides descriptions of various museum exhibits, installations, and spaces from around the world. It discusses exhibits that allow interaction with robots at the Science Museum in London, explore disability and identity at the 2010 Vancouver Paralympic Games, and combine culture and retail at 826 Valencia in San Francisco. It also reflects on how museums can break out of only being visited 3 times in a lifetime, need to be open when people are, and should find ways to reach audiences online. The document advocates for museums to work as coherent units and recognizes the people who work in museums.
