摘要

这篇文章记录了微软联合创始人保罗·艾伦通过现在被称为流行文化博物馆(MoPOP)的机构的博物馆倡议的发展,探讨了以下问题:当这位雄心勃勃、手段丰富的慈善家试图通过博物馆的媒介激励他人时,发生了什么?MoPOP的历史可以告诉我们博物馆里的当代问题是什么?MoPOP的传奇如何挑战流行文化的历史考量?我描述了一个有意开辟新路的机构所面临的谈判和挑战。叙事显示了当代博物馆价值观的演变;虽然对“未来博物馆”或“后博物馆”的崇高姿态未能生存下来,但创始人将流行文化作为一种可行的媒介主题的愿景无疑取得了胜利。新的价值观现在已经脱颖而出,包括包容性和相关性。此外,博物馆的故事提升了个人和怀旧的力量,产生了我们称之为历史的集体现象。

Busy Being Born
Chronicling the development of Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen’s museal initiatives through the institution now known as the Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP), this article explores the following questions: What happened when this philanthropist of great ambition and means sought to inspire others through the medium of the museum? What might the history of MoPOP tell us about contemporary issues in the museum? How does the saga of MoPOP challenge historical considerations of popular culture? I describe the kind of negotiations and challenges that faced an institution intentionally setting out to blaze new trails. The narrative shows an evolution in the values of the contemporary museum; while the lofty gestures toward a “museum of the future” or “post-museum” failed to survive, the founder’s vision of popular culture as a viable subject for the medium unequivocally triumphed. New values have now moved to the fore, including inclusivity and relevance. Moreover, the story of the museum elevates the power of the personal and the nostalgic in producing the collective phenomenon that we call history.
