Dear Ross Good to see you last week. I mentioned the idea of a session at the June conference of the Museums Trust. The date is the 8th June. We talked of a session on the new curatorship with perhaps 4 papers. What do you think? Best Robert Dr Robert Bud Principal Curator of Medicine The Science Museum, London +44 207 942 4200 -----Original Message----- From: Museums Computer Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Parry, Ross D. Sent: 02 December 2010 15:20 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Call for papers: 'The Museum 2011' I am delighted to inform MCG subscribers that the call for 'The Museum 2011' international conference is now open. The event is entitled: 'Building Identity: the making of national museums and identity politics'. http://s27.ntue.edu.tw/THEMUSEUM2011/THE-MUSEUM-2011.html If you look at the 'call', there is, I think, lots of potential within conference's main themes (particularly on the construction of place and identity; museum marketing; and audience research) for work related to digital media. So I encourage MCG subscribers to take a look. The conference (which will be held in Taipei 16th-18th November 2011) is a partnership between the School of Museum Studies at the University of Leicester, the National Taipei University of Education, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the National Museum of History, Taipei.
