I saw an exhibit recently on my campus where the designer put rows of slides in a specially build "Japanese" decorative case. A light would come on behind the slides when you crossed a beam. The slides were "commercial" so the owner might have had plenty to replace them if they were damaged. He even set out stereoptican cards to play with. I enjoyed that--usually you don't get to handle the goods unless you happen to work in the repository. One of our students was passing when I was in the exhibit so I dragged her over to see these media objects I knew she'd never been exposed to.
