Furthering Ideas

These ideas sound great. I agree with Jenna that the piece needs to stay in one area and not require so much audience participation. As lame as this may sound, you can't trust people, even at a swanky museum like the Mattress Factory. Edie Tsong's piece is a good example of how a good idea can go wrong when people start to mess with the artwork a little too much. By keeping the participation in the realms of light touching of the zines in the pockets (if we go that route) then that should be enough. I'm not a big fan of scavenger hunts or surveys.

Are we still thinking about the lobby as the main place for the exhibit? Or are we thinking a different place in the museum?

I love the concept of Edie Tsong's
Self Portrait and it certainly takes some guts to let the public mess with your art.
I admit to being rather shocked to see how drab the face of the portrait has become, when once it was so full of expression.
