Collective Museum is a surprising and vast campus-wide installation complete with signage, photo exhibitions, a museum tour,  and a mobile website which, as the artists explain, “takes UC Santa Cruz from having no museum to having one of the largest museums in the world.” To re-envision the university as a museum, the artists collected stories from faculty, staff, students, and alumni about 50 sites on  campus.These sites range from the site of the first international meeting to discuss sequencing the human genome; sites of  academic and personal experiences of students, staff, and faculty; and natural sites such as the mysterious mima mounds  on the southwest of the campus.​ Collective Museum creatively highlights some of the multiple and diverse sites, stories, and voices that make up UC Santa Cruz.
