===The Challenge for Artists===
===Artists===
Have fun making an image suitable to be featured on the [[Welcome_to_MOMA|welcome page]] and then upload it (here to wikimoma.art). The 2D image can be created in any style and using any media to then be scanned into a digital file, or it can be created digitally using any software. '''The proportions of the image are important''': the ratio needs to be 1.4142 : 1 (this is the ratio of [https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/iso-paper.html international paper sizes] like A4, A3, etc). The orientation of the image is also important (for page layout & browser-rendering purposes) - it needs to be '''landscape''' not portrait. [Further information will be added in due course.]

===Curators===
===The Challenge for MOMA's Wiki Developers===
There are two opportunities for curators to use the random image to create an exhibition at wikimoma.art
This is to have fun developing & deploying a stream-line interface to make the front end easy to use and be automated. This is the first major back end project for us and could be the perfect team building exercise. David Rose is keen to get stuck into forms, categories, etc and work with experienced coders to get into guts of the wiki.

===The Challenge for Curators===
The Challenge for Curators is to have fun working out how just curated this random display at the very front of the portal is going to be. For example, is it going to open slather (anything goes), democratic selection or a more selected range of works?


(2) DASGI IGVNERIUGNI GNVN
Rosie is working on setting up a [[Forum Thread]] to discuss this matter, but the Forum is broken at the momement.

===Wiki Developers===
Could you have fun developing & deploying a stream-line interface to make the front end easy to use and be automated? This would be the first major back end project for us and could be the perfect team building exercise. David Rose is keen to get stuck into forms, categories, etc and work with experienced coders to get into guts of the wiki.

Random Image Screen

The image above is chosen from a particular collection but is randomly selected by the MediaWiki software that powers this website. It is the first exhibition of images from MOMA's developing Digital Collection. If you are keen to contribute an image while the Random Image Screen is being developed, please contact David Rose by email = movingmoma@protonmail.com (he is keen to manually add a few images as an example and to test the system).

There are 3 parts to this challenge, relating to different roles players may play:

Artists

Have fun making an image suitable to be featured on the welcome page and then upload it (here to wikimoma.art). The 2D image can be created in any style and using any media to then be scanned into a digital file, or it can be created digitally using any software. The proportions of the image are important: the ratio needs to be 1.4142 : 1 (this is the ratio of international paper sizes like A4, A3, etc). The orientation of the image is also important (for page layout & browser-rendering purposes) - it needs to be landscape not portrait. [Further information will be added in due course.]

Curators

There are two opportunities for curators to use the random image to create an exhibition at wikimoma.art

Wiki Developers

Could you have fun developing & deploying a stream-line interface to make the front end easy to use and be automated? This would be the first major back end project for us and could be the perfect team building exercise. David Rose is keen to get stuck into forms, categories, etc and work with experienced coders to get into guts of the wiki. Email rosiedee333@protonmail.com if you would like to take on this challenge.
