Activity: Talk or presentation types › Oral presentation
Description
Virtual presentation given as part of the Museum Social Media Cultures Research Network seminar series. In this talk, drawing mainly on the observations I made during a social media ethnography at the Open Museum (Glasgow), I discuss how museum staff can translate analogue outreach work to social platforms. Specifically, staff draw on certain affordances of social media and mitigate others to uphold outreach work, a practice I frame with a lens of ‘infrastructures’.
