"Any interpretation that does not somehow
relate what is being displayed or being described
to
something within the personality or
experience of the visitor will be sterile." (Tilden, 1957).
Revelation - Cafe Rossa - Food Forest with Dave Carlton (Leaf Ninjas)
"Information, as such, is not interpretation. Interpretation is revelation based upon
information.
But they are entirely different things.
However, all interpretation includes information." (Tilden,
1957).
