so, you know another museum i talk about in the book is the us patent office gallery and i think this this museum is such a strange mix of different purposes because you know the patent office was of course like a federal bureaucratic office, but they created this gallery in order to house and display these miniature models that inventors submitted along with their patent applications. so by the mid 19th century they have of these and they built what's now the smithsonian american art museum and national portrait gallery building in order to put these on display for the public, but you know, if you imagine people visiting this gallery, they could purchase a guidebook, but there would all be a lot of different people interacting with these objects at once you would have patent office clerks and examiners who are using these to to adjudicate, you know, competing claims to to the novelty of an invention, but you also would have visitors to this gallery kind of alongside each other and i guess finally, you know, i mentioned at the beginning that you know a number of these museums were att

in the galleries of the u.s. patent office surrounded by models of patented machines walt whitman confronted this strange and really horrific spectacle of a mum seem transformed into a civil war hospital. and he captures in his writings this eerie scene of these cases of objects interspersed. and the writer and naturalist henry david thorau donated to harvard's natural history museum even as he recognized its value to scientific research. so the founders of museums often envisioned order, right, they pictured these collections neatly arranged in cases and cabinets, but the reality was much more disorderly process that sudden dynamic conversations within and beyond institutions. about what we choose to preserve and value, about whose knowledge and expertise is celebrated or erased, and about who has access to the knowledge and education represented by cultural institutions. these questions continue to resonate in discussions about these institutions today, and my hope is understanding the longer history of these i

when i was there several years ago i spent a lot of time wandering that gallery. i am really intrigued by more recent works, contemporary artists like mark dion's work, a lot of his work is engaging explicitly in the history of science and he creates reimagined cabinets of curiosity, some of these spaces that i think allow us to think about some of these questions. i recommend that to anyone who is interested. >> you've introduced me to a new artist, thank you. another audience member would like to know to what extent was research an objective in the founding of the early museums, and was there any public funding of the early institutions? >> i think research really was a primary objective for a lot of these institutions. i think you see that across the different fields, the american philosophical society, true at the nhs as well. i think this idea of publishing work, promoting it in that way was really important to any of these institution that is were trying to collect and record information whether that was about natural history or american history. in terms of
