Exhibition Versus Experience

In this episode, Abby and Brenda respond to the current influx of questions about the differences between what industries deem to be “exhibitions” and “experiences”, and why the conversation matters. Are experiences always event or program-driven? Where do content, learning, transformation, and meaning-making fit in? Does thinking about experience mean that we are thinking more about audiences? In a special Tech Talk segment, we look at advances and trends in technology that might be useful and inspiring when creating an experience.
