Our inquiries analyzed WCMA curators and two Williams students, one who was a summer intern at WCMA and another who is an art enthusiast (we have another CI scheduled at a later date, but this will focus on the people we have interviewed). From these inquiries, we developed a better understanding of both visitor and curator desires for the museum. In particular, the Williams students seemed to want a deeper experience where they can work to understand the art, and possibly even discuss it with others. Curators, on the other hand, want to get better and more direct feedback from the visitors. This is especially useful if they can get a sense of what frustrates people, and which galleries people are most interested in. Even though these goals have some overlap, we have to be careful that we don’t spread our design too thin. We have ideas to improve the experience of either of our current users, but we are still trying to figure out how these can come together into a coherent design (although we may have to decide to focus on one group of users OR the other).

Research October 01, 2018
We interviewed Ms. Smith, a WCMA curator who specializes in finding art among contemporary living artists. Unfortunately, we had to settle for a regular interview instead of a contextual inquiry. This was primarily because of time limitations as she had a very busy schedule.
