ExhibitFiles - Members Directory
A custom-built community site for exhibit developers
A community-based Website developed with the Association of Science-Technology Centers and Independent Exhibitions.
Too often the lessons learned designing and developing public exhibitions are not shared with other designers. ExhibitFiles is a place where exhibit developers and other museum professional can share their work and review exhibits created by their colleagues. Over the last two years, dozens of museum professionals have authored more than 200 case studies and reviews of exhibits and exhibitions.
Along with the ability to post, browse, search, and tag reviews and case studies, ExhibitFiles contains profiles of 1,300 exhibit developers and designers worldwide.
Member profiles contain personal and professional information along with favorites, contacts, and links to blog feeds and Flickr photo feeds.
At the onset of the project, a blog was launched and the design process for the site was shared with the community. This open process, along with an active advisory board, helped shape the early development of the site. The ExhibitFiles project receives Informal Science Education (ISE) funding from the National Science Foundation.
Ideum developed the site and a custom content management system (CMS) using Ruby on Rails. Ideum, along with the Association of Science-Technology Centers and Independent Exhibitions, helps maintain the site. A new round of development, including a new networked-media feature, is planned for early 2010.
Developed by Ideum with the Association of Science-Technology Centers and Independent Exhibitions. To learn more about this project please visit our portfolio.
