Session: Exhibit Design as Experience Design

This panel gathers together technologists with representatives of various fields whose practices are merging together in a new trend called edu-tainment or perform-tainment: exhibit designers, and performers. The panel explores how, by joining efforts from these various perspectives, we can design new museum experiences that involve their visitors in new, unexpected, and powerful ways.
