Only a couple of months later, I've blogged my notes from live-tooting the Museums Computer Group's #MuseTech2022 https://www.openobjects.org.uk/2023/02/live-blog-from-mcgs-museumstech-2022/

Die Empfehlung von Kati Price bei der #musetech2022 gebe ich mal auch hier weiter: "People. Change. Museums. is a six-part podcast series that explores the complex relationship between museums and technology in this time of intersecting crises" https://lnkd.in/e6v3X7EX

People. Change. Museums. — Sophie Frost

Sophie Frost
Thanks to the Museums Computer Group for having me today! Such an interesting cohort of presenters #MuseTech2022. Although online attendance has its own advantages, l would love to attend in-person next time.
If anyone is curious, particularly those at #MuseTech2022—at some point I will do a talk about lessons learnt from running the AV & Logistics for the @ukmcg conference (covering the in-person only, virtual only, and hybrid variations we've done 2018–2022) 😅
The CEO's Digital Mentoring Program from ACMI is a promising response to the digital challenges in the #Glam sector! #MuseTech2022

Keynote Kati Price on the last two and a half years - a big group hug or primal scream might help!

She's looking at the consequences of the pandemic and lockdowns in terms of: collaboration, content, cash, churn

Widespread adoption of tools as people found new ways of collaborating from home

Content - the 'hosepipe of requests' for digital content is all too familiar. Lockdown reduced things to one unifying goal - to engage audiences online

(In hindsight, that moment of 'we must find / provide entertainment online' was odd - the world was already full of books, tv, podcasts, videos etc - did we want things we could do together that were a bit like things we'd do IRL?)

V&A moved to capture their Kimono exhibition to share online just before closing for lockdown. Got a Time Out 'Time In'. No fancy tech, just good storytelling

Took a data-informed approach to creating content e.g. ASMR videos. Shows the benefits of 'format thinking'. Recommends https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-016-matt-locke/id1498470334?i=1000500799064 #MuseTech2022

Here's the programme https://museumscomputergroup.org.uk/events/museumstech-2022-turning-it-off-and-on-again/

Huuuuuuge thanks to the volunteers who worked so hard on the event - and as Chair Dafydd James says, who've put extra work into making this a hybrid event https://museumscomputergroup.org.uk/about/committee/

What's the etiquette about live posting from conferences here?
