Digital labour doesn’t involve just one person sitting in front of a screen, but rather a collaborative effort undertaken by people acting as a group – with multiple individuals, machines, and processes all working in tandem. In the final episode of this series, hear how collective digital labour at Science Museum Group has drawn a through-line between digital activities and new, more participatory ways of doing STEM heritage and of enabling science capital. This episode focuses entirely on the powerful and progressive digital activity of volunteers at Science Museum Group, profiling the valuable work of volunteers at the National Railway Museum and Locomotion and through organisation’s partnership with Wikipedia. Hear how, through collective, collaborative digital activity, digital equity in museums starts with volunteers.
Voices you’ll hear in this episode include John Stack – Digital Director (Science Museum Group), Brian Gardner – Volunteer (National Railway Museum), Matt Hick – Head of Volunteering (Science Museum Group), Jessica Bradford – Keeper of Collections Engagement (Science Museum Group), Hope Miyoba – Wikipedian-in-Residence (Science Museum Group), Dr Sarah Price – Head of Locomotion, Dr Sophie Vohra – Research Associate (National Railway Museum), Simon Walsh – former Volunteers and Community Engagement Officer (Locomotion) and Eileen Atkins – Engagement and Programming Manager (Locomotion). The voiceover artist in this episode was Chris Thorpe-Tracey.
