And another question...
   
  I am looking for thoughts by conservation and collections staff on the use of fog machines or smoke screens in exhibits. The Indiana Historical Society has launched a new exhibit that uses a sensor-activated smoke screen, projecting an image on a wall. The director of conservation and I are monitoring the changes in RH in the galleries and are interested in how other museums and galleries have found compromises between exhibits and conservation regarding this technology.
   
  Any insight would be much appreciated. 
   
  Thank you again,
   
  Alexandra
