In fact, if they've got an exhibition going on or coming up you could
ask to watch them to some real-time work. Some of the subtitles and
general weirdness don't always come up in a role playing or recall
situation. Watching them doing activities currently on their plates
could be a big win!
One other suggestion is to identify areas/questions of greatest
interest with an asterisk or something like that. That way as you
move through the session, if you find you are running out of time, you
can make sure to hit those points. I'm not sure how much time you
have with users but there's a lot to cover. These identifiers really
came in handy with the content management CIs we did last year.
Hope you don't mind me butting in :).

That's a good point, and I felt it applied to each of the
subsections of 4.
I've added a series of questions regarding the current (on-going/
upcoming) exhibition in section 4.6 Case Studies.
Feel free to check it out and add/edit. :)

Jess,
You're absolutely right--it'd be great to gather details on how
exhibits in the pipeline differ from past exhibits, especially in
terms of goals/intents, process/execution, features/novelty,
technological adaption, lessons learned from past exhibitions,
etc.. We'll work that into the guide.
Thanks for this fantastic input!
Cheers,
James

James,
This is great.
Only thing that I wonder if you'll get in the context of your
conversations, that would help us out a bit, would be any specifics
about exhibits coming up. So, in steps 4+ if they are currently in
the process of an exhibit or have a big one coming up it would be
really useful to know some details about that -- what their goals
are, how they're intending to do things differently (if they are)
and so on. My impression is that each exhibit, to a certain
extent, has the burden of being fresh and new -- I'm interested in
how they approach and feel as though they achieve that freshness.
What do you think?
Best,
Jess

Hullo,
I've put up a working draft of our exhibition designer interview
and contextual inquiry guide on the wiki (along with Word, Pages,
and PDF versions under the attachments). For the time being, it's
one of the child pages off of the main Engage page. The direct
link is:
http://wiki.fluidproject.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=6818521
Feel free to comment and edit where things are missing or unfitting.
