Presentation from Wikimania 2011 (Haifa) about the Wikimedia Chapters - outlining their Cool Projects.
Web technologies & cultural communication
The document discusses how web technologies and cultural communication are changing how cultural institutions operate and engage with their audiences. It explores how the internet has led to cultural disintermediation by removing gatekeepers and giving more people a voice. Museums are shifting from being cathedrals that dictate authority to being more like town squares that facilitate participation and multiple voices. New forms of online engagement like crowdsourcing and user-generated content are becoming important strategies for cultural institutions.
