Museumification

Museumification appears in Saving Retail as Baudrillard’s term for how, with cameras always on us, we process experiences as potential posts — society treated as a museum to be photographed. A modern experience’s value tracks its photographability, part of the broader shift in Experiences vs. Possessions.

Context: “Museumification” is a term associated with the French theorist Jean Baudrillard, describing the conversion of lived reality into displayable, image-ready spectacle.
