When you share a contact, you share a vcard file. What if you had a vcard file for objects in your collection? So, cataloging the object simply involves loading the vcard to your database. I wrote some words on #datamanagement in collections

Rethinking my long-held beliefs is really hard work. I try though.

Being a critical thinker is about more than challenging other people's assumptions. It also requires you to rethink your own views.

The top 22 ideas about life, work, and well-being that you enjoyed rethinking with me in 2022...

@porchrates I agree and often wonder if lack of funding for professional development in the humanities (I’m thinking museums) leads to the slow turnover of ideas. IE museums are slow to adapt. Generalizations, of course.

I think an artist (any kind) should run Twitter.

My kids would take my work seriously if I could work with the personal collection of #BTS singer #RM 😉. #KPOP @bts_bighit

One of my favorite topics in the world. Usually driving from a lack of listening imho.

In case you ever wondered how museums enter an #AR #AlternateReality concept.

Will provide access to those who can’t travel
I can see this as an alternative to immersive experiences that also get loaned
They will do more than just recreate a museum, but become their own thing

Thanks to Harvard University, you can now virtually enter the Great Pyramid of Giza in 3D and 360º

I’ve never been before (never had a reason to), but this is how I feel 2 weeks out from working on projects at #ArtBaselMiami

Should I go?

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@pinkprincessin1 @curatedjenny Completely. Plus, you lose the ability to view institutional posts and to re-post from others. It's pure chat from what I can tell.

That said, I started a channel if we wanna try. I'd wanna do some live chats too.

@curatedjenny What about something like Discord? Too closed off?

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@Adrienne_Reid is insurance having to adapt to the recent trend of protests targeting cultural patrimony, or do existing policies and protocols cover these risks?

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@ConservaLlama @LJaneHenderson @curatedjenny @FoundInMuseums @MarianaDGiacomo @Conservators_UK @jkconservation @lomecreu Agreed!

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@ConservaLlama @LJaneHenderson @curatedjenny @FoundInMuseums @MarianaDGiacomo @Conservators_UK @jkconservation @lomecreu You get x number of downloads for x number of uploads? Takes some moderation though.

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@ConservaLlama @LJaneHenderson @curatedjenny @FoundInMuseums @MarianaDGiacomo @Conservators_UK @jkconservation @lomecreu This could easily expand to encompass as aspects such as treatment photos or packing methods. The Instagram account would be savage!

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

@ConservaLlama @LJaneHenderson @curatedjenny @FoundInMuseums @MarianaDGiacomo @Conservators_UK @jkconservation @lomecreu The more formal way is to charge for per download and then photographers have a reason to upload (they get paid something).

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

Or, does this have to do with the accounts I’m following?

[JT Robinette @JTRobinette3]

Every other post on museum/gallery social media talks about how toxic the work environment is. Protests, bans, complaints

I want to know who has created a good culture. I know that too is debatable, but surely someone must be happy because the industry continues to exist.
