          <p>We worked with the Science Museum in London to develop a wiki to support their exhibition of objects manufactured in post-war Britain.</p>

          <p>Via kiosks in the gallery, the wiki was available to both exhibition visitors and users online, and asked people to contribute their knowledge and memories of the objects.</p>

          <p>The project was widely talked about in the museums community, both for its innovation and bravery in seeking curatorial collaboration with the public.</p>

          <p>Hundreds of stories about the objects were collected, and some objects received detailed technical descriptions from outside expert amateurs.</p>

          <p>The project no longer accepts public contributions, but is available as an archive.</p>
