Ok, I could ask actual people I know, but I'll throw this out here instead.

I know there is a great scene-setting piece out there that I can use for week 1 of my cultural heritage unit, but cannot find it or remember the details.

- Under 20 pages
- Summarises the history of western collecting institutions
- Opens up good first week (therefore also get to know you) conversations about why those institutions / collections / etc can be problematic.

Whatcha all got for me?

Historically, recorded sound in museums has only been used to provide information about visual objects.

Our museum's objects are recorded sounds.
