Dear Mrs. Jannusch,

there was an interesting piece in Saturday's Weekendreview of The Times
by Armando Iannucci ("Poke, prod, press or push ... it's your choice")
about interactive museums. It was quite a rant ("Interactivity is a
superficial sham leading only to hunger and emptiness ...").

If you're interested, I might scan the article.

And, yes: I would like a copy of your paper, too, if possible!

Best regards,

Only connect! That was the whole of her sermon.

from
