I was sent this by the team at Wexner Centre of the Arts. They’re launched an iPhone-enabled part of their website with quite a nice little UI. Here’s a video of it in action.

They’ve also put out their development documents (PDF) for other museums to use.

  Research on urban space makes attempts to go beyond the current polarizing discussion of its future (Harlander and Kuhn 2003: 225) that, on one hand, highlights the negative aspects of downtowns' loss of civic purpose, social centrality, surveillance-free spaces, non-commercial festivities, and local cultural establishments while, on the other hand, celebrating an increase in urban diversity, urban uses, everyday appeal, and public optimism with regard to city cores (Breuer 2003b; Selle 2002).

- Wikimedia Foundation projects and the museum community | conference.archimuse.com 2009/12/11
  One set of issues raised frequently in discussions about museum participation in Wikimedia projects relates to rules that Wikipedia has established that were designed to prevent self-promotion, ensure articles only reference reliable sources, and establish levels of 'notability' for things that get their own article, to cite some examples. These policies are perceived to have perverse effects when the subject matter is a museum artifact with largely internally held, unpublished documentation and the editor contributing the article is an in-house expert
