This is a podcast episode from the National Gallery, London, May 2007. Produced by Antenna International. It takes listeners into the night at the museum and what happens when you're looking at art after the visitors have gone.

Nocturne

Audio produced by Christine Murray

 as I interviewed Stan Abele, a charming WWII veteran, about an aircraft he flew during the war.    He described his first flight in an F4F Wildcat like it had just happened yesterday.  That immediately sent me thinking about visitors standing beneath that very airplane on the flight deck of the USS Midway Museum.   The Wildcat looms over guests, low enough so they can touch its wheels, duck underneath its wings, peer into its cockpit.   As a writer, the key is to acknowledge that “fixed-in-space" experience, but transcend it as well, to deliver a present-tense moment that exists – in a storytelling sense – outside the constraints of time.   All, of course, in the span of about 90 seconds.
