On y trouve de grandes tablées comme à la maison - avec des bougies ou des fleurs sur les tables par exemple- qui favorisent les rencontres entre les gens. On peut y bruncher le dimanche, y déjeuner sur le pouce voire même y dîner selon les endroits : salades, smorrebrod (sandwich), pâtisseries… Les cafés ne sont pas gérés directement par les bibltiohèques mais confiés en gérance.

SFMOMA’s Art Game Laboratory: Real-Life Mad Science Experiments in Visitor Engagement.

SFMOMA’s Art Game Laboratory: Real-Life Mad Science Experiments in Visitor Engagement

The exhibition engages the museum’s community to invent games that test out new ways of experiencing the museum, and is populated by five responses to an open call for game designs. The exhibition also provides ongoing opportunities for continued community dialogue about games—through online channels, onsite visitor feedback mechanisms, and live programming focused on games. The mini-workshop connected with this paper will provide hands-on opportunities to play the five games that are part of ArtGameLab.
