A terrific and important exhibit. I toured it yesterday and was truly moved by the story it tells. If you’re in New York you should go see it. @FDRLibrary @dutchesstourism @NPS_HydePark

Wow, is this going to change #museums!
In less than an hour, I created photos and a description of the "Magical Forest Puzzle" (totally made up using AI):

The Magical Forest Puzzle—an open-ended adventure blending physical play and AI. As children place puzzle pieces in the space, AI sensors bring the forest to life, triggering dynamic digital responses. Watch as trees grow, animals come alive, and magical objects interact with each other. With interactive challenges, personalized guidance, and collaborative play, the Magical Forest Puzzle sparks the imagination and problem-solving.

In the "Learning from Lockdown: How Digital Experiments Became Long-Term Essentials" #AAM2023 session, museum educators share the impact their museums have had serving unique digital audiences, from art teachers and K-12 students to older adults with dementia and caregivers.

Before engaging the public on social issues, museums can clarify their values and boundaries. To define those, Brevity & Wit recommends 4 Ds of non-partisan DEAI:
1️⃣ Invite Difference
2️⃣ Reject Dehumanization
3️⃣ Combat Disinformation
4️⃣ Defend Democracy
