NOTE 1:A REVOLUTION IS NOT AN EXERCISE IN CONCENTRIC CIRCLES.

I'm closer to the stodgy traditional museum supporter than to the audiences you are currently trying to reach, but I strongly support your outreach and attempts to involve new communities. It is precisely because of that outreach that I finally became a museum member last year. There was no reason to do so before, since the museum was doing nothing. I still have little occasion to go to the museum, but I'm willing to support it as an important community resource.

NOTE 2:INVITE MEANINGFUL ACTION AT ALL LEVELS.

NOTE 3:BE RIGOROUS.

We produce programming

Our mission is achieved

(therefore give us money)

BRIDGING

BRIDGING

EMPOWERING

NOTE 4:THINK PLATFORMS.

NOTE 5:MAKE SPACE.

The average scientist, so far as I can make out, spends almost all his time working on problems which he believes will not be important and he also doesn't believe that they will lead to important problems.

-Richard Hamming, “You and Your Research,” 1986
