    I do.

    Work in the Exhibition Department at the American Museum of Natural History in NY. We do all permanent and travelling exhibitions along with some internal graphics/signage; weirdly enough, we don't do the advertising for our shows that's out-sourced which always turn out crappy.

    We do have license to have creative freedom in design, both architecturally and graphically, however, the bitchiest thing is the budet. After 2008 a lot of companies stopped funding or funds less and that kinda fucks up our desire to experiment with new stuff. Also, the fact that we range from all topics in science helps us stay interested.

    I've been here 5-6 years, first job, and I really wish i'd work for clients just to get to know the business side more.
