This thesis presents an investigation into the potential of digitally enhanced exhibition spaces to foster the engagement of children within family groups with museum objects on display, i.e. where physical contact is prohibited. The main focus is on the influence of digital enhancement on visitors’ engagement with artefacts and not on the digital elements themselves. This study has taken the mixed methods approach. It combines ethnographicallyinformed field studies with a design intervention within an overarching methodology of action research. In the review of literature, research from multiple fields including museum studies, interaction design and play research was brought together and examined from the perspective of exhibition design. This led to the development of the Social Dream Spaces Model. This model, which describes how visitors engage with museum objects, was used as the basis for a design intervention aimed at enhancing children’s engagement with exhibited artefacts. In-gallery participant observations were carried out in Bantock House Museum, Wolverhampton. Insights, based on data analysed from the perspective of the Social Dream Spaces Model, were used to develop a prototype of a digitally enhanced space, which was implemented into the existing exhibition. Data gathered in observations before and after the design intervention were compared in order to determine any changes in visitors’ responses to the exhibition. This study demonstrates the benefit of using the Social Dream Spaces Model for designing digitally enhanced exhibition spaces that promote children’s engagement with artefacts and social contact around them. The findings also confirm that designing subtle and nonintrusive digital enhancement can facilitate intergenerational interaction in exhibition spaces.

<p>The purpose with this thesis is to study how the arranging of archaeological objects in permanent exhibitions has changed over time. To find out about this I have been analysing three museums with prehistorical permanent exhibitions. The exhibition at Statens Historiska museum was produced in 2005, Nationalmuseum in Köpenhamn was produced in 1972 with additions from 1988 and 1995 and, finally, Malmö Museer exhibition which was produced in 1977. These exhibitions have been compared to analyse developments during the last 30 years. The result shows that there are different ideals within the exhibitions. Over time, these ideals have been focused more on the visitors and they have tried to appeal to the visitors through themes where the objects have been placed into a narrative. However there are many styles of exhibiting prevalent today that go back all the way to the beginning of the 20th century.</p> / <p>Uppsatsens syfte är att ta reda på hur sättet att ställa ut arkeologiska föremål i basutställningar har förändrats över tid. Detta har jag undersökt genom tre utställningsbesök på Statens Historisk museum som hade en forntidsutställning som var producerad 2005, Nationalmuseum i Köpenhamn vars utställning var från 1972 med tillägg 1988 och 1995 samt Malmö Museer utställning från 1977. Dessa utställningar har sedan jämförts för att se vad som har hänt under de senaste 30 åren. Resultatet blev att det finns olika ideal inom utställningarna. Över tid har idealen blivet mer publikvänliga och har försökt tilltala publiken i större utsträckning genom teman där föremålen sätts in i en berättelse. Dock finns det mycket gestaltningsmässiga grepp som lever kvar sedan början av 1900-talet.</p>

Ljudet är ett intressant kommunikationsmedium som utnyttjar varje individs egna erfarenheter och föreställningar där associationer får stort utrymme. Mu- seer som idag kan välja från ett stort urval av medier har mycket att vinna ge- nom att använda sig av ljud - inte enbart för att tekniken tillåter det. Den här uppsatsen har för avsikt att undersöka ljudets möjligheter som kom- munikationsmedium i utställningar. Syftet är att sprida ljus över detta förhål- landevis outforskade område som jag anser har många outnyttjade möjligheter. För att avgränsa min undersökning har jag valt att studera utställningen Dröm- mens syster som finns på Världskulturmuseet i Göteborg. Jag har intervjua någ- ra nyckelpersoner bakom utställningen för att förstå dess mål. Därefter har jag intervjuat ett antal besökare för att skapa en bild av hur dessa har upplevt besö- ket i utställningen. Drömmens Syster är en utställning om människor och myter kring Orinocoflo- den som visas. Utställningen vill berätta om de alltmer hotade folken kring flo- den som slingrar sig igenom Venezuela. Resultatet visar att ljud är ett bra medium för att förmedlar information och speciellt för att involvera besökaren i en upplevelse av regnskogen och livet kring vattenfallet. Vid flera tillfällen har museet lyckats förmedlar mer informa- tion än en bild skulle har gjort. Besökarna kan dra nytta av den lugnande effekt som vattenfallet har och uppleva skräck när ormen väser. På grund av det resul- tat jag fått hoppas jag att fler kommer att se möjligheterna i informationsför- medling via sinnen som till exempel auditiv kommunikation. / Sound is an interesting communication media that takes advantage of each persons individual ex- perience and conceptions and allows for many individual associations. Today museums can choo- se from a wide range of media (pictures, video, sound guides, computer and sound installations) to communicate with their audience because a greater variety of technical solutions is available. This paper has the goal to analys the possibilities of sound as a media of communication. The aim is to shed light on this relativly unexplored field that I think has a lot of potential. To narrow down my exploration, I have chosen to take a closer look at the exhibition Drömmens syster that is shown at the Världskulturmuseet in Gothenburg, Sweden. I have interviewed some key persons behind this exhibition to get an idea about the aim and I have interviewed a number of visitors to get a better understanding of how they experienced the exhibition. The exhibition Drömmens syster is about the more and more endangered people and their myths who live close by the Orinoco river in Venzuela. The conclusion from this essay shows that sound is a good media for communicating informa- tion. It is especially well suited to involve the audience in an experience of rain forest and the daily life around it. The museum suceeds several times to tell more by using sound than by just using pictures. Visitors can gain from the calming effect of the waterfall and they can get thrilled from the hiss of the snake. Therefor I sincerely hope that we are going to see more media con- cepts in the future that use auditive communication.

Detta examensarbete undersöker balansen mellan frihet och struktur i informationsförmedlingen i en utställning som bygger på hands on-pedagogik. Arbetet har utgått från utställningen Människokroppen vid Tom Tits Experiment i Södertälje. Utställningen som byggdes 1997, har utformats med en tanke om att skyltar skapar hinder och en motvillighet om att skylta om "rätt sätt". Utställningsytan har idag komprimerats och experimenten har grupperats i två avdelningar. I samband med denna förändring har skyltningen i utställningen kommit att ses över. Detta eftersom föräldrar och andra vuxna besökare utryckt en önskan om mer information. Behovet av information har delats in i skyltar för enskilda experiment och skyltar för utställningens tema. Hur denna efterfrågan kan mötas utan ett gå emot den pedagogik och estetik som Tom Tits tror på är den centrala punkten för arbetet. Lösningen har utgått från en tes om att det går att samla informationen vid en punkt för att minimera antalet skyltar i utställningen. Genom metoder såsom litteraturstudier, kvalitativa intervjuer, enkätundersökning och rumsanalys har en förståelse för problemets komplexitet skapats. Vilken i stor utsträckning handlar om kontrasterna mellan barns nyfikenhet och den kontrollerande vuxenvärlden. Den designlösning som tagits fram, resulterade i tre (istället för en) punkter där fokus har lagts på att etablera utställningens tema och uppmuntra till interaktivitet. Det har även funnits en strävan efter enhetlighet och flexibilitet då problemet inte är koncentrerat till den aktuella utställningen och informationsförmedlingen i hela huset saknar en röd tråd. Varpå hänsyn har tagits till Tom Tits visuella profil och den estetik som ses som karaktäristisk för verksamheten. Studierna kretsar därmed till stor del kring Tom Tits, men förhoppningen är att arbetet intresserar flera aktörer, varpå en strävan efter generella riktlinjer för informationsförmedlingen har funnits. / This is a study about the balance between freedom and structure in the information design of an exhibition based on hands-on education. Work is focused on the exhibition The Human Body at Tom Tits Experiment in Södertälje. The exhibition, which was built in 1997, was designed with the idea that signs create barriers and a reluctance to advertise about the "right way". The exhibition space has now been compressed and experiments have been grouped into two sections. In connection with this change, the signs in the exhibition come to be reviewed. This is because parents and other adult visitors expressed a desire for more information. The need for information is divided into labels for individual experiments and signage for the exhibition's theme. How this demand can be met without going against the pedagogy and aesthetics that Tom Tits believe is the central point of the work. The solution was based on the thesis that it is possible to gather information at one point to minimize the number of signs in the exhibition. Through methods as qualitative interviews, questionnaire survey and spatial analysis have an understanding of the complexity of the problem created. Which largely deals with the contrasts between the child's curiosity and the controlling adult world. The design solution that has been developed, resulting in three (instead of one) points where the focus has been on establishing the exhibition's theme and encourage interactivity. There has also been a quest for uniformity and flexibility, then the problem is not found to the current exhibition and information design throughout the house lacks a common thread. Whereupon consideration has been given to Tom Tits visual profile and the aesthetic that is seen as characteristic of the business. Studies circuits thus largely about Tom Tits, but it is hoped that the work interests a number of players, then a pursuit of general guidelines for the transmission of information have existed.

The Italian exhibition design, delineated from the influence of El Lissitisky and the production within the European vanguards, had in Brazil MASP as a space for its expression through mainly the performance of Lina Bo Bardi. From this context, the present research aims to highlight aspects of Italian exhibition design, influenced by the premises of modern Italian architecture and art. The exhibition Fashionable art: collection MASP Rhodia (2015-2016) presents 79 pieces of clothing that were donated by Rhodia to the MASP collection in the year 1972, and this exhibition, through the analysis of its exhibition devices, the object of this research. Here we made use of the bibliographical and documentary techniques, if the latter stopped the analysis of documents, texts, drawings and images related to the exhibition Fashionable art: MASP Rhodia collection, held at the MASP Documentation Center. The exhibition presents a different display from those that marked the Italian production in the field of exhibition design. / O retorno de exposições no Museu de Arte de São Paulo "Assis Chateaubriand" – MASP a partir do ano de 2015 é uma revisão do programa museológico com vias a delinear as próximas ações maspianas. O design expositivo italiano, delineado a partir da influência de El Lissitisky e da produção no âmbito das vanguardas europeias, teve no Brasil o MASP como espaço para sua expressão através, principalmente, da atuação de Lina Bo Bardi. A partir desse contexto, a presente pesquisa tem por objetivo pontuar aspectos do design expositivo italiano, sob influência das premissas da arquitetura e da arte modernas italianas. A exposição Arte na moda: coleção MASP Rhodia (2015-2016) apresenta 79 peças do vestuário que foram doadas pela Rhodia para o acervo do MASP no ano de 1972, sendo essa mostra, através da análise de seus dispositivos expositivos o objeto desta pesquisa. Aqui se fez uso das técnicas bibliográfica e documental, detendo-se esta última da análise de documentos, textos, desenhos e imagens relacionadas à exposição Arte na moda: coleção MASP Rhodia, realizada no Centro de documentação do MASP. A exposição apresenta um display distinto daqueles que marcaram a produção italiana no campo do design expositivo.

Este estudo trata de exposições de fins educativos que tenham como objetivo oferecer uma reflexão sobre design. Para tanto, importa conceber a exposição como modalidade de projeto, o que torna oportuna a fundamentação teórica em design de exposição, alternativa na área do design gráfico-ambiental. As bases conceituais do trabalho compreendem a exposição como produto que constitui variável na percepção dos visitantes. O objetivo geral é elaborar critérios projetuais a partir da análise, em três estudos, sobre as ações de organizadores e designers, com vistas à comunicação com o público. A pesquisa é de caráter exploratório, para a qual lançamos mão de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Os casos analisados, em três cidades do país, nos anos de 2010 e 2011, revelaram que, além de contribuir para a difusão do design, estes eventos constituem modos de refletir sobre os desafios do design e o papel do designer na contemporaneidade. / This study concerns educative exhibitions that aim to offer a reflection on design. Therefore the exhibition is conceived as a design type of project, which makes timely the theoretical foundations on exhibition design, an alternative in environmental-graphic design. The conceptual basis comprehends the exhibition as a product which is a variable in the visitors’ perception. The aim is to generate project criteria throughout the analysis in three studies regarding the actions of organizers and designers, considering the communication with the audience. The research is of exploratory kind, to which we lay hold of semi-structured interviews. The cases analyzed in three Brazilian cities during the years of 2010 and 2011 revealed that, besides its contribution to the diffusion of design, these events consist ways of reflecting about the challenges of design and the designer's role in contemporary society.
