Framing Data Curation as Museum Practice

This paper describes a potential approach for framing data as a museum practice. These principles may be used to help people who are deciding how to present data to make choices appropriate to the setting and context of use as well as making data easier for an audience to make sense of. This paper next considers different possible levels of engagement with data and its interpretation and use within data stories, starting from raw data sets, moving towards stories from data and finally how the act of embodying data as data drama or experiencing data theatre may lead to new perspectives on it. We briefly describe a case study that used some of these ideas for creating future personas, or SciberPunks, for sustainable and more-than human design scenarios.
