Monitoring the Vibration Response to Artwork During Live Musical Performances. Join us for a unique interdisciplinary program exploring how sound and vibration from live music affect works of art. In recent years, museums around the world have raised concerns about the impact of vibrations from music on the safety and longevity of their collections. To advance understanding into this topic, engineers at Wiss, Janey, Elstner Associates (WJE) and Kemper Art Museum staff were part of an international research team to develop a Good Practice Guide for Musical Events at Museums.
