"I resolve to deploy digital media within cultural institutions in order to make them more open; open to access, to dialogue, to critique, to participation, to change. I further resolve to increase my own capacity for rigorous scholarship so that such openness is not pandering, but rich; not obvious, but surprising. I resolve to do these tiny tiny things (in the greater context of the world) with a sense of humor."
