the new york times has an interesting online front page feature about “subversive audio museum tours” available via podcasting: unofficial audio guide to museums done by “art hackers”, student and professors of art taking you on a more critical, but also more original and entertaining tour of museums. the NYT article specifically talks about NY’s museum of modern art (moma) and the audio guides available from art mobs but there are other audio tour guide out there, podguides.net, for example, collects audio tours through towns and cities; the podtrip site has an audio tour for the Burlingame Museum of Pez Memorabilia in burlingame, ca, usa. some more audio tour podcasts sites can be found via podcastalley
checking out the links page of the podguides site i noticed podsites.com…they are using apple’s ipod notes features to create podsites: think web sites for ipods! apple’s ipod notes format allows us to link to other notes files, to directories, to songs, and images (you can even lock the ipod user into the notes application…)
interesting stuff all that.
