Digital Media in Everyday Life: A Snapshot of Devices, Behaviors, and Attitudes

August 1, 2011 | Media and Technology
Through the Digital Media in Everyday Life research initiative, The Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago seeks to better understand our audience and their relationship to technology and digital media in order to inform the development of our own digital initiatives. Our definition of “audience” is necessarily broad, and includes visitors to the Museum as well as users of all our online, mobile, and social media experiences. Therefore it is not only important for us to understand what mobile devices visitors might bring into the Museum, but also how users behave online and in social networks, which of activities and media they spend time with, and their attitudes towards digital experiences in general.
