When the world fought against the COVID-19, many museums took action to remember life under lockdown (封锁):" When we knew there was going to be a lockdown, we talked about what we could collect for the future, "said Beatrice Behlen. The Museum of London then began a plan which asks Londoners to give it things that could show their life during the COVD-19. I could be something about a new skill they have learned, such as cooking or making masks for medical workers.
What about people's feelings, such as sadness, fear, hope and love during the lockdowm? How could they be collected? The Museum of Home, also in London, got an idea. It was asking people to send it videos. One family had recorded how they set up a screen in front of their table so they could share a meal with other family members through the Internet.
In Sweden, the Nordiska Museet, the country's largest museum of cultural history, was collecting information about how children' daily life had changed and how they thought about the future. In Austria, photos of a birthday party in lockdown were being collected by Vienna's Wien Museum.
