discussing Hyperconnections

Internal discussion forum here at the museum last week about the implications and issues raised by Hennes, dsicussed previously on this blog.
From the point of view of a newcomer/outsider, it was interesting to see how personally people at the museum related to the article, and how protective and passionate they felt about the issues raised.
It was a good starting point for the discussion, as it was presumably designed to be, with some of the dichotomies raised in the article heavily criticised. The article is discussed on the audience research wiki, and some of the comments made have already been posted there.
