re Benton Museum of Art Claremont Colleges- 👎

1st time there: they watch you too much, like you're a potential shoplifter 👎. I visit museums around the country & world & have a website dedicated to art & museums. The best museums have a casual atmosphere even though they have good security. 

There's nothing WORSE than having a person literally follow you from room to room. Use a Freakin Surveillance Camera and sit in a room with big screens to surveil the patrons. 

Otherwise leave them/us alone to enjoy. If 99.9 % of patrons DON'T do anything wrong, seems wrong to watch them as if their potential shoplifters 99%of the time.

 We ALL know the golden rule of museums: Don't Touch Anything Anywhere at Anytime 

re Frye Art Museum, Seattle. Don't Tell me to Have a Nice Day

Its ok. Kind of Small. And I wish they had an area where you didn't feel you were being watched all the time. I know they need to make sure nobody touches anything but is that REALLY a problem. We've been trained like monkeys since kindergarten to KNOW that the #1 rule at museums is "DON'T TOUCH". 

I like museums where its more relaxed so i DON'T feel like an animal in the zoo. DON'T worry. We will NOT TOUCH anything. 

Here's what u do: u also have cameras 📹 watching our every move. So u have 1 person monitoring the screens. If he/she sees a character who is acting like a rebel, you send an employee into that area . Otherwise u give people free reign. 

Art is supposed to liberate us, right ? And the experience at the art museum should be liberating, NOT a task to complete & then feel glad that you're getting out of there.  

AND by the way there's nothing WORSE than somebody saying "Thanks for coming. Have a nice day" in an apathetic tone as you leave . I  DON'T believe u truly care if i have a 'nice day' . u DON'T even know me & probably WOULDN'T even be willing to help me if u saw me on the street. 

So flush your  meaningless cliches down the toilet 🚽 💩. DON'T dump them on us 🚫 👎.

READING MOBY DICK    "The Rare Virtue of Interior Spaciousness .. The book is about democracy, God, revenge, friendship, boats, human nature, oils, and whaling; and those thousands of words of detail about whaling read like a great work of New Journalism. Melville's four-year stint on such vessels, beginning in 1841, gave him the knowledge that allowed for such realism..."
