> Nostalgia is the least inclusive interaction with a museum of historical artefacts because you cannot teach anyone nostalgia: they either were there and remember the thing on display, or they do not.

That’s not true. A not uncommon type of museum in Japan are the “Showa Era Museums”.

I was not alive during this era, but I feel nostalgia nonetheless. For context, these museums usually capture the 50s-70s, Japan’s rapid economic growth feeding into consumerism, or maybe the other way around, and there are record players, pachinko machines, and a very distinctive, bright, neon filled aesthetic.
