[BCMA] Streakers, skimmers, studiers

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

This refers to different styles of visiting a museum or looking at an exhibit...streakers walk through the gallery and do not get involved with the exhibits to any great extent, skimmers maybe read a bit of the text or the title, and studiers read every line of text and really get into the experience.  Successful museum/gallery exhibits typically have to take into account all of these styles and provide layers of experience for all types of visitors....  I'm a studier myself....Probably most of you are as well!

Hello fount of knowledge;
I recall coming across a categorization of typical museum/gallery visitors as streakers, skimmers, or studiers. Can anyone provide any more info on that?
Thanks;Chris
