Irritated by people discussion on cell phones in museums? The San Jose Museum of Art has introduced a program to get them listening instead of talking.
With its current exhibit, ' 'Visual Politics: The Art of Engagement,'' the museum became one of the first art museums in the country - and quite possibly the first - to offer a tour of an exhibit via cell phones.
Museum officials say they plan to open a cell phone tour in Spanish when ' 'Art Caliente! Selections from the Joe A. Diaz Collection'' opens there next month. They hope to gradually add cell phone tours of all exhibits in the permanent collection.
