Hi All, A couple weeks ago, I gave a presentation at the "Books in Browsers" publishing conference. Making a larger point about e-books' inherent instantaneity and everywhere-ness, I proposed giving museum visitors e-books downloads directly from artworks in galleries, with the help of a QR code and a smartphone. Someone who saw the presentation pointed me to MoMA's "Talk To Me" as a current example of a museum exhibition connecting rich digital content of all sorts directly to physical objects and places.
I know of a few other tangential examples, but I'm wondering if anyone else out there is doing anything specifically with in-museum e-books at all? I'd love to hear about it if you are. Or, if you'll be in Atlanta next week and can chat in person, that would be great as well, I'll be there leading a workshop ... on e-books. Thanks! Greg And here's the presentation, in two flavors: video: http://bit.ly/sFRpxv e-book: http://bit.ly/bib11artbk -- Greg Albers Hol Art Books www.holartbooks.com 520) 331-2780 twitter: @holartbooks
