1/12 #openGLAM is often framed as a one way flow of data FROM an 'official' organisation TO the general public.
However, a lot of cultural content is being captured in 3D & made openly available by 'unofficial' + citizen digitization efforts.

2/12 Can the data being shared be considered #openGLAM?
I ( @nebulousflynn) think so & believe there is a huge opportunity for collaboration between these 'official' and 'unofficial' 3D projects.
Some of my favourite examples in thread.

10/12 The list goes on.
How can such individuals collaborate with GLAM orgs? In general, they cannot
GLAM orgs are often not set up for - or amenable to - 'digital accessioning'.

11/12 I'm ( @nebulousflynn) not saying that organisations SHOULD do anything, I just want to indicate a rather fantastic opportunity to embrace the enthusiasm & skills of talented members of the GLAM audience.
12/12 Perhaps an example to follow is that of @museumofmaking in Derby, UK which has actively pursued a program of 'co-production' with expert and novice volunteers.

13/12 What do you think?
Should GLAM organisations (often deficient in 3D digitization capabilities) consider inviting 'citizen digitizers' to help build 3D data collections?
If so, how?
