Mouseion, literally “seat of the muses,” is where we get the modern word, “museum.” Although museums are my chosen profession and my almost exclusive employers for the past eight years, I intend this site to be read by both non-museum people and museum professionals. Posts use concepts in museums and my experiences working in them to allude to larger issues, common to all. Inspired by Rob Long’s fantastic radio show, “Martini Shot,” (podcast via iTunes) I hope my posts will leave you simultaneously happy, sad, amused, learned, and better from having read them.

I’m intrigued. Writer has an informal yet very intelligent way of putting things. Definitely intend to read more.

Like reading my own brain at times. I think many of us in and out of the museum field have had these feelings. This is so bookmarked. May even inspire me to post more at my own blog.
