I found this post today that focuses on a private museum in Korea dedicated to providing children with interactive experiences incorporating technology, art, architecture. The question in the title of the post—When is an art museum a workshop?—speaks to questions of convergence and participation that seem to be piling up all around us these days. At this point, I’m not sure answers are in order (i.e. not the goal) as the question (and others along similar lines) give rise to intellectual space for inquiry and the development of pedagogic & critical practice I can only hope will inspire all generations: from analog to digital ‘natives.’
The blog this post comes from—DMLcentral—is relatively new, emerging from a previous new media literacies project. There are some great thinkers writing on the blog, so I recommend checking it out.
