On Wednesday, March 11th Jeff Steward and Steven Waldron from the Harvard Art Museums talked about “Building the Digital Harvard Art Museums.” Description: Several years ago the staff at the Harvard Art Museums started to assemble a new suite of digital tools to coincide with the opening of the new museums in November 2014. In this session we’ll talk about the implementation of these tools along with the museums’ aesthetic and design, APIs and the collections databases, and the commingling of the physical and digital experience.
