About us
What inspired an art historian and a creative technologist to co-found Objects and Order? We wanted to help museum teams, collectors, and artists manage objects and create digital content in one space. Legacy collections management systems were designed for entering standard data into standard fields, but there’s so much knowledge, activity, and history created around objects that doesn’t “fit” in a traditional CMS. Today, museums want to do more than just catalog; they want to use their system to share information and insights with audiences. Rigid CMSs hold museum teams back. When you can’t add or update fields, you can’t create a central space for all your object information. And when you want to share object data and media online, it often requires using other programs to plan, create, or publish. You wish you could do everything in one place, without all the back and forth. You want to track and access the information you need, when you need it. And wouldn't it be so much easier if you could create content using what’s already in your system, from your system? Add and access the information that's important for your objects and projects, and then use it to create engaging digital features (and soon, exhibitions) with the MOON Object System.

We prioritize flexibility, minimalism, and clarity so your objects can be your focus. ▹ You should always be empowered to structure and share your object data, content, and media in the way that works best for you. ___________________________ EXH.CAT is our color-coded catalog of U.S. exhibitions.

We made a tiny plastic reproduction of Albrecht Dürer’s Rhinoceros! Here’s what we used: • Shrinkable plastic sheets • Printed image • Pen • Roll of artist tape Step 1: Find a high quality, public domain image. Woodcuts work well. We used an Open Access image from the Met: Albrecht Dürer, The Rhinoceros, 1515, woodcut. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Gift of Junius Spencer Morgan, 1919 Step 2: Crop as desired, scale the image, and then flip it horizontally. Scale the image to the size of the plastic sheet(s). We used 2 sheets for this (each 5 x 4 in.). The scaled image is 5 x 6.99 in. Why flip? You trace the image on the rough side of the plastic. The image will appear in the correct orientation on the shiny side. Step 3: Print the image and secure it to a surface. We printed in blue and used a watercolor block and artist tape. Step 4: Secure your plastic sheet(s) (rough side up) in place over your image with the tape. Step 5: Start tracing. We used a black pen (.38 mm) and worked on this for a few hours. Step 6: When finished, remove the plastic sheet(s) and bake per shrinkable plastic instructions. Step 7: Document your tiny new object. We added this work to our “Plastic Prints Collection.” What print should we try next?

You missed a once-in-a-lifetime exhibition. You were absolutely going to see it, but time got away from you. Now it’s closed. Exhibition regret is real. 😞 EXH.CAT can help help prevent it.

Balboa Park Online Collaborative hosted a new episode of our Dreaming of a New Collections Management System webinar series with Objects and Order and its founders Christina Aube and Jason T.. Christa and Jason introduced their MOON object system, a flexible and customizable collections management system designed to complement existing systems. They demonstrated many of its features, including the ability to add and update different types of objects, upload and view media, create custom modules, and publish collections online. The system's cloud-based nature, user permissions, and tech stack were also discussed, with plans for upcoming AI enhancements and new modules. If you missed the webinar or would like to share it with your colleagues, you may find a recording of it on our YouTube Channel or at the following link: https://lnkd.in/e_aXCQQS We will be back next month with a new webinar in our Dreaming of AI series with Mark Osterman at the Wolfsonian.

Working on a project with objects can lead to file frenzy and frustration. Collections management systems weren't designed to offer the flexibility necessary to plan object-based projects; standard project management software wasn't designed for organizing object data, media, and content; and squinting at tiny thumbnails and scrolling through field after field in a multi-version shared spreadsheet is never ideal. Whether you’re preparing an exhibition, research project, or a collection survey, you can collaborate with your team and streamline contributions with the MOON Object System: - See a well-ordered, visual presentation of your objects - Organize information that’s important to your team in one space - Easily access images and audio & video files - Add captions, alt text, and rights information to images - Download object data as PDF, CSV, or JSON files - Highlight and share objects in engaging digital content modules
