Jeff Steward, Director of Digital Infrastructure and Emerging Technology at the Harvard Art Museum, has generously offered to customize a visit for us which will focus on the changing nature of their acquisitions process in order to include digital works (seeing some examples of such works on view). We will also see some examples of how the museum collects and creates data visualizations, some of which are generated to help understand how visitors engage with digital objects and the online collections database. In addition to this tour we will be free to explore the museum on our own (there is plenty to see!). Since the customized tour will feature a few staff members from across the museum we are still confirming the time. The date below is tentative (though highly likely). Please RSVP to Kristen Confalone (capacity of 20 people).
