Do exhibits really teach? Do they really present big stories well? Is personalization really a must? Are exhibits getting ... better?
Interpretive planner and designer Matt Kirchman joins me on the podcast to debate Six Provocative Questions. Listen in and see what your own answer is to each. But buckle your seat belts — these are called provocative for a reason.
Quotable Quotes:
“Exhibits tell great stories — but they don’t narrate very well.”
“Do less, better.”
“Exhibits are both Shredded Wheat and Lucky Charms.”
“Exhibits aiming at customization often deliver complexity instead.”
“We’re the number one trusted source, more than the news media – now what do we do with that soft power?”
