Hi. I am Barry Joseph.
I am formerly the VP of Digital Experience at the Girl Scouts of the USA and Associate Director For Digital Learning at the American Museum of Natural History.
When I began at the Museum I used this blog to talk about my adventures, exploring issues related to digital media and museum-based learning. I featured original interviews, thought pieces, and highlights from my work and those of my colleagues at the AMNH.
Starting in 2020, with the launch of Barry Joseph Consultancy, LLC, I turned this blog into a place to explore digital engagement writ large.

New CNET Article on Use of Telepresence Robots in Cultural Halls
In their recent issue, CNET.com magazine covered the use of Suitable Technologies’ Beam robots within museums. One section detailed our work, now offered on a weekly basis over the summer, which I am delighted to share with you.
