"Beyond Interface: An Interview with Robin Dowden, Nate Solas, and Paul Schmelzer"

An interview with Robin Dowden (Director of New Media Initiatives), Nate Solas (Senior New Media Developer), and Paul Schmelzer (Web Editor) at the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis. The Walker’s institutional website – walkerart.org – was relaunched in December 2011 following a two-year conceptual reboot and complete redesign. Styled as an online newspaper, the new site heralds a paradigmatic shift for innovative museum websites in creating an online platform with an emphasis on publishing while placing itself at the centre of generating conversations around content from both inside and outside the Walker’s activities.
