[First paragraph] The agility of mediated museum communication
A product and construct of their times and places, museums have always adapted to their changing world.
Museum history shows them responding to shifting political contexts and to developing social settings.
They react to alterations in the demographics of their audiences, as well as changes to their environment.
They are shaped by the prevailing ideas and the philosophical climate around them. And they choose new
ways of working within evolving technological landscapes. Far from a staid institution, fixed in shape and
habits, the museum, in actuality, when viewed in a broader historical scope, is a study in cultural and
intellectual change.
