RE: Global list?BTW, it would be nice if every contributor to the list just
mentiones (in a signature form) where he is from (country, state, city and
even museum - plus website??). Then, we would know better about the
globality factor of this list.

Betreff: Re: Global list?
I have been asked to share my answer to the list question...what is the
Human Mind and Body program at Museum Victoria?
An off-the-cuff answer is that the Human Mind and Body program is a new
concept in program research, collecting and interpretation - to be reflected
for the first time in the new Melbourne Museum.
Melbourne Museum is opening next year as one of Museum Victoria's campuses
and will be the largest museum in the Southern Hemisphere. (You all knew
about this, didn't you?)
There will be a Human Mind and Body gallery in the new museum and my
program colleages and I are working on four exhibitions for Day One, which
are generalised as follows;
- Mapping the Mind and Body (conceptualisation and mapping of the mind and
body from Egyptian times to the present)
- Biotechnology and Beyond
- Highlights of the Mind and Body (systems and functions)
- Medical Research in Melbourne
(All working titles)
I'm in design meetings, so better go!

Adrienne -
Your job title intrigues me. Could you please explain what the Human
Mind and Body Program is all about? I'm probably not the only person who
would be interested so maybe you could respond to the list.
Thanks,
Anne Hartmann

From Melbourne, Australia; Dear all,
I read every message on Museum-L as the start to my working day and
although I am geographically remote from my European and American
colleagues, it certainly doesn't feel like it.... my contact through the
list serves to reinforce the commonality of our goals, problems and
experiences as museum workers. The parochialism of my US colleagues makes
me smile and think 'here they go again!' - I rather enjoy the banter. It's
up to us around the world to kick in if we want presence on the list, but I
think most people are like me - I read everything but only send messages
when I really need to....

Subject: Global list?
Some time ago I asked on this list if there would be any
people interested
in having a Dutch mailinglist. Most of the reactions were very strong.
It
was not desirable to have too many different lists. We should stay
global.
If I could not find something in this list for me, maybe I should
contribute
more.
Well, I took those suggestions to heart en stayed on this
list. I have been
reading for a while now, and I noticed that most people here just
assume
that everything happens in the USA.
I must say that I find this very annoying. If this is a
US-list only, okay,
I will hold my breath. But if you want to be global, please do not
assume
that everyone is in the states.
Am I the only one who thinks about it this way? How do other
non-USA
subscribers think about this?
Greetings,
Karin Meijerman,
Museum Joure
The Netherlands
