Abstract

Once upon a time, the design of a museum or exhibition took a backseat to its content. Today, design is content, particularly when a museum's mission is to convey information, rather than show objects. For these projects, display technology has come to play a central role, and it has evolved to the point where its hardware can recede into the background so that visitors are not only immersed in content but can interact with it, as well. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art in California taps the energy of artists to create experimental exhibitions in its Boone Children's Gallery.
