At the recent AAM convention in Cleveland, the session "What's Going On: Hot
Topics in Exhibit Development" proposed three topics for in-depth
discussion: technology, architecture, and institutional paralysis.
(Unfortunately, time only permitted discussion of that last item.) To
illustrate these topics, three haiku were composed. In response to numerous
requests, we post them here.
========================
Technology
The perfect wedding
of medium and message.
The budget demurs.
========================
Architecture
The architect dreams --
towers gleam in August sun;
no people inside.
========================
Institutional paralysis
Winter turns to spring.
The project isn't moving.
Another meeting.
========================
Somebody else is typing up the full notes from the session. If they become
available, we'll let you know.
