What would be displayed in this museum? en-us 2016-08-04 01:57:11 UTC 2017-05-17 10:46:06 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/118222728 have a nice day..]]> 2016-08-15 00:55:02 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/118222728 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/119086753 If a museum was dedicated to me, my cultural beliefs and belongings... Well as previously mentioned in week ones Padlet I don't have 'cultural beliefs' per say that relate to any country of origin but I do have strong morals and individual beliefs. The main topics I believe in are Feminism, non-binaries, gay-marriage, animal rights and nature protection. Things that would be displayed in this Museum would be all of my past and future artworks along with written articles that relate to these issues. ]]> 2016-08-22 03:28:05 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/119086753 katelittle https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/120130253 For our society, of economic rationalism, progress, media and consumerism, I imagine money, scientific instruments and digital devices, luxury and leisure items.
Those things do not represent my personal values, however... and yet I do not believe I am special. I imagine most people feel as I do, that these things are prominent but do not speak of the real us.
It's an interesting question (and probably the point of the exercise). 
How can you possibly capture the essence of people by putting some of their stuff in a museum?]]> 2016-08-26 22:02:32 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/120130253 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/120213615 If there was a museum dedicated to me it would be filled with the things that I hold spiritually important. I greatly value the past and its ability to allow us to look back at our progress as a species i.e seeing and understanding our triumphs and mistakes. I don't have any strict 'cultural beliefs' But I go by the idea that we should treat all living things with the respect they deserve.
Maybe a museum dedicated to me would be an empty room which the visitor could look within themselves to find understanding and peace. ]]> 2016-08-29 01:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/120213615 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/121011007 If there was a museum dedicated to me it would be filled with my photographic works. I take pride in being a music photographer and enjoy capturing certain moments in time (mostly of musicians I work with). This is probably the main thing that defines me that I feel could be displayed in a museum.

I prefer not to discuss my spiritual beliefs with those I don't 100% trust and thus will not be commenting on this part of myself.]]> 2016-09-01 05:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/121011007 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/121018081 Any museum dedicated to me would have to include an extensive collection of books as knowledge is something I think is important. My room is also full of handmade objects and the materials to make them so I expect that they would see these as evidence of what I make. Photographs would also be important as they are images of family and friends. I think they would be perplexed at my pet photos though unless their culture reveres animals.. ]]> 2016-09-01 07:05:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/lfa7tc2p8hgq/wish/121018081
