[MCN-L] Online Views of Electronic Signage

2011-01-03 Thread Ruth Cuadra
Hi, Scott.
 
Check with Karen Wizevich (JHU faculty)...she's got a ton of examples
of museums maps and wayfinding systems.  This topic was included in her
Introduction to Museum Architecture course last summer.
 
Regards,
Ruth

Hi Folks-

I'm developing a section of a course on electronic signage and
wayfinding systems in museums.
I am looking for examples of interactive and non-interactive systems
that can also be viewed online.

Two examples would be:
Art Institute of Chicago's - PathFinder
http://www.artic.edu/pathfinder/php/pathfinder.php

Minneapolis Institute of Arts - Today at the Museum
http://www.artsmia.org/directories/

I'm hoping some of you might be willing to share URL's to other
examples you manage, created or know of, even if they are just
electronic signs.

Many thanks in advance.

All best,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I did a presentation at InfoComm last June that may be useful. 

I endeavored to build an outline for planning the various aspects of a display/ 
interactive project for various channels in terms of objectives, costs and 
workflow.  Each project has decision points in the areas of Communications mode 
(Broadcast, On Demand or Interactive), Software platform (Packaged, Customized 
package or Custom), Hardware  Infrastructure (Where? What? Size? Supporting 
infrastructure), and Content Sources  Workflow (What is it? Can it be re-used? 
 If so, what is the transformation?).  Decisions in each of these areas impact 
the budget and help to define the stakeholders for the overall project.

I uploaded the presentation slides to slideshare, which messed up the 
formatting a bit.  It starts with a lot of pictures of artwork to give context 
to a non-museum crowd.  Let me know if larger images of anything would be 
useful.

Thanks,
Liz
