Writing assignments have been keeping me so busy that I realized I hadn’t posted anything about our May meeting. Last week, we met at the Museum of Science, where attendees were treated to a presentation by Beth Amtmann and other MOS staff about some of the prototypes under construction for the Museum’s Upcoming Hall of Human Life exhibition. I demoed a new touchscreen we’ve installed in the Colby Room, and talked about plans for an assistive mode for visually-impaired visitors we’re developing. Turnout was good and we had guests from as far off as Portland, Maine (Hi, Rob!)
Afterwards, we adjourned to Lingo for a rollicking good time. Finding a place that doesn’t mind when you completely rearrange the tables is a real plus. I might offer Lingo up again as a place to meet.
I mentioned it in person to a few folks, but here’s the official announcement of our next meetup.
