Before I get started, I wanted to mention the best thing I experienced on my respite trip down to my old stomping ground of London. You'll be unsurprised that I visited the Black Music exhibition at the V&A East. It was an amazing experience; fully immersive with a curated soundtrack that responds to the items you're looking at. This exhibition will profoundly change the way music exhibits are curated in the future; highly recommended! #music #museums #BlackBritish https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/the-music-is-black-a-british-story

The only taxidermied blue whale in the world, 1865 CE, now housed at the Natural History Museum in Sweden. The public was allowed to enter it up until a couple was found having sex inside it; now its jaws are opened only for special occasions like Swedish election days. #globalmuseum #museums #whales

Does AI use mean less web traffic for museums? There are many ways to approach this, but here I've mapped the ratio of web visits at smk.dk to physical museum visits. If guests get info elsewhere, this ratio should change (i.e. fewer web visits per physical visit). I'm pretty sure that must be happening but currently the effect isn't strong enough to be clearly visible. We'll follow these numbers closely 🔎 #musetech #museums #glam #smkmuseum #dkmuseum

5 Resistance Museums Recall the Bravery of ‘Ordinary People’. For many visitors to these European museums, the acts of those who opposed Nazism and Fascism have become newly relevant. https://archive.ph/DcFK2 #globalmuseum #museums #resistance #WWII
