      Museums are places of wonder and curiosity, but are unfortunately often framed as cold and dull. Modern museums are looking to games and playful interfaces to help develop experiences that are exciting and engaging for new audiences. In this panel, Matt Parker, Barry Joseph, and Marco Castro Cosio will discuss their collaborations on “Designing for Museums,” a course where students develop new ways to experience museums and their content through the lens of games.
