Question 2- repsonses

Does the attainment of emotional value from a museum object distract a visitor from learning about that object?


“Not necessarily distract, but can lead/ enforce/ direct an interpretation over another”.

"I think it can prevent a deeper engagement with an object- leading to a singular point of view about it. I think it can hinder their ability to spark dialogue- sort of like touching for the novelty of it- but not really thinking about the emotions and why they are happening…”

“In my experience it enhances the learning experience”.
