Michael Edson, "The Commons and Digital Humanities in Museums," *YouTube*, 24 January, 2013; Orig. delivered 28 November, 2012. "Inspired by the work of Lawrence Lessig, Lewis Hyde, and Bill Ivey, among others, museum technologists have been striving to provide greater access to cultural heritage collections in the form of commons. The currents of DIY, digital humanities, and free and remix culture have challenged museums to transform their relationships with scholars and the public toward openness and democratic participation. The GLAM-WIKI movement and Creative Commons licenses have also significantly reshaped museum practices. How can museums build vanguard collaborations and collective resources not only to aid constituents as they use institutional content but to create anew in a digital culture? This panel will explore the diverse implications of the formation of commons by museums." With thanks to Neal Stimler @nealstimler Attn. Josh Lambier and Joel Faflak
