Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Museum of Failure" in English language version.
No, not at all. The whole aim of the museum is to help people recognize that we need to accept failure if we want progress. And by that I mean any kind of progress, not just consumer products and new devices. The main point is that we have to accept failure, because it usually takes several iterations before we get things right—most experiments fail. And then the second point—which I try to make money off of, with varying degrees of success—is to emphasize that companies in particular have to be better at learning from their failures. A corollary is that it is not cool just to "fail fast"—as they like to say in Silicon Valley. Or to "move fast and break things," or any of those clichés. Yes, it's okay to fail, but you have to learn something from the experience. Those are the goals of the museum, anyway.
