COPY CULTURE Sharing in the Age of Digital Reproduction Edited By COPY CULTURE Edited by Brendan Cormier Brendan by Edited CULTURE COPY Copy Culture: Sharing in the Age of Digital Reproduction explores how digital tools are revolutionizing the cultural COPY CULTURE heritage landscape through copies. Every day, museums, institutions and individuals alike are digitizing more and more of our global cultural heritage, resulting in vast databases of high-resolution images, 3D models and Sharing in the Age Edited by other forms of digital reproductions. These copies are of Digital Reproduction Brendan Cormier being shared like never before, reaching new audiences around the world, inspiring creativity, enabling learning and aiding preservation. Through essays, interviews and project profiles, the book draws from a cross-disciplinary group of experts to better understand the challenges and opportunities for making, storing, sharing and using digital reproductions, in museums and in everyday life. Copy Culture is a result of ReACH (Reproductions of Art and Cultural Heritage), an initiative spearheaded by the Victoria and Albert Museum with the Peri Foundation, to bring museums and cultural heritage practitioners together to collectively draw a roadmap for the future production and use of digital copies.

    Preservation Is Not a Place 1 4th International Digital Curation Conference December 2008 Preservation Is Not a Place Stephen Abrams, Patricia Cruse, John Kunze California Digital Library, University of California December 2008 Abstract The Digital Preservation Program of the California Digital Library (CDL) is engaged in a process of reinvention involving significant transformations of its outlook, effort, and infrastructure. This includes a re-articulation of its mission in terms of digital curation, rather than preservation; encouraging a programmatic, rather than a project-oriented approach to curation activities; and a renewed emphasis on services, rather than systems. This last shift was motivated by a desire to deprecate the centrality of the repository as place. Having the repository as the locus for curation activity has resulted in the deployment of a somewhat cumbersome monolithic system that falls short of desired goals for responsiveness to rapidly changing user needs and operational and administrative sustainability. The Program is pursuing a path towards a new curation environment based on the principle of devolving curation function to a set of small, simple, loosely-coupled services. In considering this new infrastructure the Program is relying upon a highly deliberative process starting from first principles drawn from library and archival science. This is followed by a stagewise progressesion of identifying core preservable values, devising strategies promoting those values, defining abstract services embodying those strategies, and, finally, developing systems that instantiate those services. This paper presents a snapshot of the Program’s transformative efforts in its early phase. The 4th International Digital Curation Conference taking place in Edinburgh, Scotland over 1-3 December 2008 will address the theme Radical Sharing: Transforming Science?.

  • Analog, the Sequel: an Analysis of Current Film Archiving Practice and Hesitance to Embrace Digital Preservation by Suzanna Conrad
    ANALOG, THE SEQUEL: AN ANALYSIS OF CURRENT FILM ARCHIVING PRACTICE AND HESITANCE TO EMBRACE DIGITAL PRESERVATION BY SUZANNA CONRAD ABSTRACT: Film archives preserve materials of significant cultural heritage. While current practice helps ensure 35mm film will last for at least one hundred years, digi- tal technology is creating new challenges for the traditional means of preservation. Digitally produced films can be preserved via film stock; however, digital ancillary materials and assets in many cases cannot be preserved using traditional analog means. Strategy and action for preserving this content needs to be addressed before further content is lost. To understand the current perspective of the film archives, especially in regards to the film industry’s marked hesitation to embrace digital preservation, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ paper “The Digital Dilemma: Strategic Issues in Archiving and Accessing Digital Motion Picture Materials” was closely evaluated. To supplement this analysis, an interview was conducted with the collections curator at the Academy Film Archive, who explained the archives’ current approach to curation and its hesitation to move to digital technologies for preservation. Introduction Moving images are a vital part of our cultural heritage. The music, film, and broadcasting industries, as well as academic and cultural institutions, have amassed a “legacy of primary source materials” of immense value. These sources make the last one hundred years understandable as an era of the “media of the modernity.”1 Motion pictures and films were established as vital archival records as early as the 1930s with the National Archives Act, which included motion pictures in the definition of “objects of archival interest.”2 As cultural artifacts, moving images deserve archival care and preservation.3 However, the art of preserving moving images and film can at times be daunting.

Desire for Perpetuation: Fairy Writing and Re-creation of National Identity in the Narratives of Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang Yuki Yoshino A Thesis Submitted to The University of Edinburgh for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that ‘fairy writing’ in the nineteenth-century Scottish literature serves as a peculiar site which accommodates various, often ambiguous and subversive, responses to the processes of constructing new national identities occurring in, and outwith, post-union Scotland. It contends that a pathetic sense of loss, emptiness and absence, together with strong preoccupations with the land, and a desire to perpetuate the nation which has become state-less, commonly underpin the wide variety of fairy writings by Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang.

  • Archived Press Release the Frick Collection
    ARCHIVED PRESS RELEASE from THE FRICK COLLECTION 1 EAST 70TH STREET • NEW YORK • NEW YORK 10021 • TELEPHONE (212) 288-0700 • FAX (212) 628-4417 Victorian Fairy Painting OPENING AT THE FRICK COLLECTION, BRINGS NEW YORK AUDIENCES AN UNEXPECTED OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE THIS CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED EXHIBITION October 14, 1998 through January 17, 1999 Attracting record crowds in British and American venues, the exhibition Victorian Fairy Painting comes to The Frick Collection, extending its tour and offering New York audiences an unexpected opportunity to view this unique presentation. Victorian Fairy Painting, on view October 14, 1998 through January 17, 1999, represents the first comprehensive exhibition ever devoted to this distinctly British genre, which was critically and commercially popular from the early nineteenth century through the beginning of World War I. The paintings, works on paper, and objects, approximately thirty four in number, have been selected by Edgar Munhall, Curator of The Frick Collection, from the original, larger touring exhibition, which was organized by the University of Iowa Museum of Art and the Royal Academy of Arts, London. Fairy painting brought together many opposing elements in the collective psyche and artistic sensibility of its time: rich subject-matter, an escape from the grim elements of an industrial society, an indulgence of new attitudes towards sex, a passion for the unknown, and a denial of the exactitude of photography. Drawing on literary inspiration from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream to Sir Walter Scott’s Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border, as well as the theater, the dance, and music, fairy painters exercised their magic with the precision of the Pre-Raphaelites, aided too by experiments with drugs and spiritualism.

  • Archives First: Digital Preservation Further Investigations Into Digital
    Archives First: digital preservation Further investigations into digital preservation for local authorities Viv Cothey * 2020 * Gloucestershire County Council ii Not caring about Archives because you have nothing to archive is no different from saying you don’t care about freedom of speech because you have nothing to say. Or that you don’t care about freedom of the press because you don’t like to read. (after Snowden, 2019, p 208) Disclaimer The views and opinions expressed in this report do not necessarily represent those of the institutions to which the author is affiliated. iii iv Executive summary This report is about an investigation into digital preservation by (English) local authorities which was commissioned by the Archives First consortium of eleven local authority record offices or similar memory organisations (Archives). The investigation is partly funded by The National Archives. Archival institutions are uniquely able to serve the public by providing current and future generations with access to authentic unique original records. In the case of local authority Archives these records will include documents related to significant decision making processes and events that bear on individuals and their communities. Archival practice, especially relating to provenance and purposeful preservation, is instrumental in supporting continuing public trust and essential to all of us being able to hold authority to account. The report explains how Archival practice differs from library practice where provenance and purposeful preservation are absent. The current investigation follows an earlier Archives First project in 2016-2017 that investigated local authority digital preservation preparedness. The 2016-2017 investigation revealed that local authority line of business systems in respect of children services, did not support the statutory requirement to retain digital records over the long- term (at least 100 years).
