As focal points with social\, political and cultural authority\, museums and universities both generate and transmit knowledge. Museums de-contextualise and re-contextualise objects in their collections. This means they can be both a constrainer and liberator of meaning. Museums have historically mediated meaning and access to meaning around collections and objects. Access to meaning can either challenge or embed paradigms of knowledge. Universities and museums were at the centre of political power when European colonisers spread across the globe. This involved massive displacements of cultural objects\, scientific specimens and even human remains. Objects became a part of the trade in Imperial knowledge systems.\n\n \nMany argue that now is the time for museums and universities to come to terms with this historical legacy. Museums and universities have many collections that are colonial legacies. There are demands from source communities for repatriation and restitution. Furthermore\, audiences and students want to know how and why much of that material got there in the first place. There are calls for this reckoning with historical legacies to reshape universities and museums into new types of organisations through decolonization.\n \nThis webinar asks the questions (among others):\n· Are museums and universities changing to incorporate new knowledge systems?\n· Are museums and universities organisations that are capable of polyphony?\n· Can these institutions be Indigenised?\n· Do attempts to bring in new voices\, perspectives and knowledge systems amount to more than tokenism or appropriation\, or is real progress being made?\n\nRead more here\n\n \n\nAccess here:\n\n  URL:http://umac.icom.museum/calendar/polyphonic-perspectives/ CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210524 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210525 DTSTAMP:20210517T085756Z CREATED:20210517T085358Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210517T085756Z UID:6030-1621814400-1621900799@umac.icom.museum SUMMARY:Patrimonio científico: Colecciones universitarias y estrategias digitais DESCRIPTION:  \n  URL:http://umac.icom.museum/calendar/patrimonio-cientifico-colecciones-universitarias-y-estrategias-digitais/ CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201107 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201110 DTSTAMP:20200223T195858Z CREATED:20200223T195858Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200223T195858Z UID:5503-1604707200-1604966399@umac.icom.museum SUMMARY:APRU 2020: University Museums Research Symposium DESCRIPTION: URL:http://umac.icom.museum/calendar/apru-2020-university-museums-research-symposium/ LOCATION:National University of Singapore\, Singapore CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200622 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200627 DTSTAMP:20191227T085728Z CREATED:20191227T085617Z LAST-MODIFIED:20191227T085728Z UID:5408-1592784000-1593215999@umac.icom.museum SUMMARY:Universeum 2020 DESCRIPTION:University museums and collections in the vanguard of contemporary societal debates \nThis main theme echoed the debate on the definition of museum in ICOM community.  During the 2020 Universeum Annual Conference in Belgium\, we would like to continue this debate and focus it specifically in relation to university museums (U-museums) and collections\, questioning their role as actor of social and political change on one hand ;

As such their value resides as much in their physical supports\, as in\nthe representation of the cultural networks of meanings and interactions of which they were part.\nFor some types of objects\, this includes a particularly strong ‘performative’ element\, where the object is a tool to accomplish an action: musical instruments\, vehicles\, clocks and watches\, machinery and objects of science and technology are few of the most obvious examples.\nFor decades\, museum approaches have been divided between emphasizing the preservation of the material support of the object\, and preserving its capability to operate\, for reasons that include\ndissemination as well as research. The use of alternatives\, such as replicas and digital modelling has also been explored\, sometimes controversially\, and few attempts have been made at producing\nguidelines for the care and preservation of few among these types of objects.\nThis conference aims at offering a platform to discuss and compare current approaches the preservation\, and interpretation of functional objects\, comparing practices across collections\, institutions and countries. It is hoped that\, by highlighting overlaps and differences\, it will be possible to develop a greater understanding of the practical and ethical reasons that inform different policies and that the outcomes of the conference will prepare the ground for a common set of guidelines that might build on the cross-disciplinary experience provided by a variety of objects that present common challenges. \nThe conference is particularly open to perspectives from curators\, conservators\, makers\, musicians and all key professional stakeholders dealing with the preservation and interpretation of functional objects across collections. \nThe conference is jointly organized by the International Committee for Museums and Collections of Musical Instruments and Music (CIMCIM)\, the International Committee for Museums of Science\nand Technology (CIMUSET) of the International Council of Museums (ICOM) and the Cité de la Musique – Philharmonie de Paris. It is generously supported by the International Council of Museums ICOM. The International Council of Museums is an international\norganisation of museums and museum professionals which is committed to the research\, conservation\, continuation and communication to society of the world’s natural and cultural\nheritage\, present and future\, tangible and intangible. \nSub-themes:\n\n1. The ontology of functional objects\nIt has been widely argued that the nature of an object is transformed as soon as it enters a museum collection. Moreover\, most functional objects have undergone changes\, repairs\, maintenance work\nand degradations\, either before or after entering a museum collection\, which might have transformed the way it operates and its outcome.\nHow relevant is the preservation of functionality – or the capacity to operate – in faithfully preserving and representing a museum object\, and how does it combine with the many conflicting priorities that regulate the life and choices of a museum collections? \n\n2. Interpretation of functional objects\nInterpretation and public engagement are traditionally among the main reason to operate functional objects in museums collections\, either within the museum galleries or taking them outside of the\nmuseum environment itself. This is often the case with musical instruments\, vehicles\, trains and several types of objects that would have operated in public spaces before entering a museum.\nHow can the impact of operating an original object be measured and justified\, if at all\, beyond the satisfaction of passing curiosity? How reliable is the message conveyed by operating an original and\nhow satisfactory are possible alternatives such as copies or digital reproductions. Can truly satisfactory alternatives be found\, compared to operating originals\, which could still deliver a fully satisfactory experience for the visitor? \n\n3. Good practice and risk management\nDuring the last decades\, approaches to operating museum objects have greatly changed leading to the production of sometimes contradictory policies and guidelines that reflect the spirit of their time.\nIndividual museums\, sometimes individual conservators\, have developed practices and protocols to support informed decision making and risk assessment/management. \nCan these policies and approaches be distilled in an overarching approach to operating objects held\nin museum collections? Where do they overlap and where are they unique to certain types of\ncollections? Which policies and practices are currently in place and how effective have they been in\ntheir implementation? \n\n4. Objects functionality in the 21st Century\nIn the last few years\, the rise of virtual object design and physical modelling has created new opportunities and alternatives to reproduce and demonstrate the functionality of objects. These\ninnovative approaches may question the very reason for making actual objects work.\nHow is the ongoing digital revolution changing the discussion on instruments playability and objects functionality? Can it provide a satisfactory alternative to understand functional objects? What can\nit contribute to the discussion on the usage of functional objects? \n\nAbstracts submission Guidelines:\nThe following types of contributions are invited:\n– Short papers\, 10 min. + 5 min. Q+A\n– Full papers\, 20 min. + 10 min.

Throughout the complex ways of their provenance\, their changing uses and their connections to different protagonists they represent junctions of extended networks. \nThis year’s Conference\, organized by  Mainz University in cooperation with the  German Society for University Collections and addressed to curators of university and museum collections and scientists working with objects\, focusses on the networks of collections and the different perspectives on their objects. It will be discussed which potential follows from that for the cooperation with other disciplines\, with partners within and out of universities\, on regional\, national and international level. \nNote: the Conference language is German. \nSee Program. \nRead  more.
