Jake, We do not have audio tours at the museum I work at but the Field Museum in Chicago has two exhibits that they utilize mobil audio technology for. You might try contacting the curator for their Splendors of China exhibit. I used the "phones" and found them to be fine. Good Luck, Becca ________________________________ From: Museum discussion list on behalf of Jake Barton Sent: Tue 7/27/2004 9:36 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Outdoor audio experiences? Hi list-- I am developing audio interactives at Ground Zero for StoryCorps, and am wondering if anyone has recommendations of other outdoor audio experiences they have seen, or specific technologies. We are thinking about audio sticks, but would love to find a single audio cup that fits over one ear, since we are concerned about the noise from the site. Also, an audio piece that has a volume control on it would be helpful. Any case studies on how to weather proof any of this would be really appreciated.
