Editor's Notes
why to talk about aesthetics in a conference about inclusion ? Because there is no an aesthetic experience if there is no inclusion, if the visitor cannot engage with the exhibited work. Participative design pieces are tools for inclusion through active involvement of the visitors in generating content.

Multiple voices for the multiple artefacts in the exhibition could enrich the experience. Involving visitors’ comments in the message of the exhibition makes the visitors more committed to the experience. The audience is an active participant, leaving traces of their own knowledge. In that way the commitment in the contribution makes the whole museum visit a participative experience.
