Bc Museums Association Podcast

The GLAM International Series will help galleries, libraries, archives, and museum professionals in BC reflect on what it means to be an informed citizen with a global perspective. Through this podcast series, we will interview innovators, disrupters, and thinkers that help to frame the work we do in an international context. In this episode, Leia talks to fellow BCMA staffer Lorenda Calvert about Burning Man arts and culture. Lorenda shares how she got involved in Burning Man, Black Rock City as a large-scale art gallery, and three ‘museums’ at Burning Man. Finally, we chat about the sector in general and how some of the teachings at Burning Man might help shake up how we engage the public.    Links from our conversation: More About Burning Man Learn about Mutant Vehicles Heavy Meta El Pulpo Mecanico by Duane Flatmo and Jerry Jerry Kunkel The Midnight Museum of That One time at Burning Man by Jerry Snyder Learn about MOOP and leaving no trace at Burning Man The Museum of No Spectators by John Marx and Absin
