Plattformiseringen av et kunstmøte
"The chapter explores how digital mediation affects aesthetic encounters. A case study of Felix Gonzalez-Torres’ «Untitled» (Blue Placebo) (1991) shows how the digital platforms through which the artwork is mediated, contribute to a broader diversity of participation than the physical museum space. The digital processes of mediation the installation is part of, express – and to some extent enforce upon both the audience and the artwork – certain logics, power structures and possibilities."

Museum open data ecosystems: a comparative study
"This study aims to investigate how, in forming their policy towards open data (OD), art museums interact with the OD ecosystems they are part of, comprising internal and external components such as cultural policy, legal frameworks, user groups and economic conditions and incentives."
"As the first comparative case study of art museum OD ecosystems that the authors are aware of, the study provides a qualitative analysis of the complex dynamics impacting OD policy within the mid-sized art museum. The authors identify specific dynamics that are thus far restricting further development of the OD ecosystem of the mid-sized European art museum."

Museum Leaders’ Perspectives on
Social Media
"In the context of the shift towards participatory practices within museums, museum engagement with social media represents a form of organizational change. This study approaches social media and the corresponding organizational change from a museum leader’s perspective, utilizing data from a broad cross-section of 82 museums in Norway. We address how the characteristics of a museum and its leader impact social media attitudes, behaviors and intention towards social media-based change."
