18 Years of ExhibiTricks!
The ExhibiTricks blog turned 18 this summer!
Since June 2007, I've been posting roughly once a week -- so I've built up quite a "back catalog" of ideas to share.
Here are four "blasts from the past" that are among the most popular ExhibiTrick posts:
Are Exhibit Timelines So Boring Because of the Lines?
There are soooo many timelines in exhibitions -- can't we make them more interesting, both physically and conceptually?
Hayao Miyazaki's Museum Manifesto
Hayao Miyazaki is a film artist who has created some amazing animated films for Studio Ghibli in Japan. He has also created one of my all-time favorite museum manifestos, which I think is worth revisiting from time to time.
Many Ways To Say Thanks
Most donor recognition installations in museums are really ways to say thanks. And who could argue with that? Here's a post with lots of interesting examples.
Are Screens Killing Museums?
I still think museums default to screen-based solutions too often, without really considering other design alternatives. This post is memorable for me for the amount of "hate mail" it generated!
THANKS to everyone who has been along for the ride -- whether for the whole eighteen years, or for just the past few months.
