Dear All,
This Wednesday evening (25th April) I'm one of an enthusiastic bunch
of museum people who'll be talking about our latest projects and
discoveries at "Museums Showoff <http://wp.me/p1LEfs-7e> ", in the
Camden Head pub on Camden High Street.
Doors open at 7pm, and admission's free (although the suggested
donation is £5, to go to the charity Arts Emergency,
http://www.arts-emergency.org <http://www.arts-emergency.org%20> who
campaign to make arts and humanities degrees accessible to people from
disadvantaged backgrounds.)
The speakers will be:
Terence Eden on QRpedia
Brian Macken on the Irish Natural History Museum, or 'The Dead Zoo'
MJ Hibbett from Dinosaur Planet with a rock opera about space dinosaurs
Gordon Cummings on the North West Essex Collection
Subhadra Das on UCL's Pathology Collections, or, Why Russell Brand
Should Never Be Let Near Any Museum Collection; Ever
Gemma Angel on the Wellcome Collection's 300 preserved tattooed human skins
Me talking about Museums at Night
Ayla Lepine on teenagers in the V&A
Catherine Walker with handling objects from the Wellcome Collection,
including a shrunken head
Steve Lloyd on responsive signage at the Science Museum and a robot in
the Houses of Parliament
Robots, tattoos, shrunken heads and a rock opera about space dinosaurs
- how can you resist? If you come along, please do say hello to me!
All the best,
Rosie Clarke
