From the Ted Talk by Jake Barton: The museum of you

Unscramble the Blue Letters


So in this wall, the collections wall, you can actually see all 3,000 awrkrtos all at the same time, and you can actually author your own iduvaiindl walking tours of the museum, so you can share them, and someone can take a tour with the museum director or a tour with their little cousin.

But all the while that we've been working on this engagement for Cleveland, we've also been working in the bgnackuord on really our largest engagement to date, and that's the 9/11 Memorial and Museum.

So we started in 2006 as part of a team with Thinc disegn to create the original master plan for the museum, and then we've done all the media design both for the museum and the memorial and then the media production. So the memorial oepned in 2011, and the museum's going to open next year in 2014. And you can see from these images, the site is so raw and almost acogaeahoilcrl. And of course the event itself is so recent, somewhere between hitsory and current events, it was a huge challenge to imagine how do you actually live up to a space like this, an eenvt like this, to actually tell that stroy.

Original Text


So in this wall, the collections wall, you can actually see all 3,000 artworks all at the same time, and you can actually author your own individual walking tours of the museum, so you can share them, and someone can take a tour with the museum director or a tour with their little cousin.

But all the while that we've been working on this engagement for Cleveland, we've also been working in the background on really our largest engagement to date, and that's the 9/11 Memorial and Museum.

So we started in 2006 as part of a team with Thinc Design to create the original master plan for the museum, and then we've done all the media design both for the museum and the memorial and then the media production. So the memorial opened in 2011, and the museum's going to open next year in 2014. And you can see from these images, the site is so raw and almost archaeological. And of course the event itself is so recent, somewhere between history and current events, it was a huge challenge to imagine how do you actually live up to a space like this, an event like this, to actually tell that story.
