  • Contemporary Analog and Digital Color Photographic Prints: Processes, Practice, and Accelerated Test Methods for Evaluating Print Permanence Date and Time
    The Library of Congress > Preservation > Training > Topics in Preservation Series Topics in Preservation Series (TOPS) Print Subscribe Share/Save Give Feedback « Back to TOPS Schedule Contemporary Analog and Digital Color Photographic Prints: Processes, Practice, and Accelerated Test Methods for Evaluating Print Permanence Date and Time Friday November 20, 2015 1:30 - 3:00 pm Location Library of Congress West Dining Room James Madison Memorial Building, Sixth Floor Washington, DC Webcast Register for the live webcast by November 18. On November 19, you will receive an email with instructions to test your system in advance (recommended) and how to access the webcast. About the Lecture: The first high-quality digital photographic printing processes entered the market in the late 1980s, and today it is believed that more than 99% of the world's photographic prints are being produced with digital color and monochrome processes. Included are modern digital prints made from scans or digital camera captures of original color and black-and-white negatives and transparencies, from glass plate negatives, and scans made from historical and other previously made prints. The twelve major current digital photographic print processes will be discussed, including UV-curable printing and a new inkjet sublimation thermal dye transfer process for printing on large, specially coated aluminum panels. Recent developments in aqueous pigment inkjet printers using newly developed inks with enhanced permanence will be described, including the important continuing role of silver-halide-dye (chromogenic) color prints and their gradual replacement with pigment inkjet, electrophotographic, and dye inkjet systems. Exhibitions by fine art photographers Andreas Gursky, Cindy Sherman, Henry Wilhelm holding a test Jeff Wall, Joel Meyerowitz, Stephen Shore, William Eggleston, Elger Esser, target and others will be used to illustrate various printing processes.

JTS 2016, Singapore, 7-9 March 2016 Federal Department of Home Affairs FDHA Swiss Federal Office of Culture FOC Swiss National Library NL • Microscopic observation of the surface of a disc: • The shape of the groove visually represents the acoustic vibrations, which closely correspond to the electric signal, of the recorded sound. • There's plenty of information available, but it requires a very high resolution photography or scanning.

Cavaglieri Federal Department of Home Affairs FDHA Swiss Federal Office of Culture FOC Swiss National Library NL • A schematic overview of the VisualAudio concept: • The disc is photographed (high resolution copy) • The film is scanned (image digitization) • The raw image is processed (groove reconstruction) • The final image is transduced to sound (sound extraction) Practical VisualAudio | A long journey to tangible results 3 Stefano S. Cavaglieri Federal Department of Home Affairs FDHA Swiss Federal Office of Culture FOC Swiss National Library NL • Why the analog photographic step? • The photo is an accurate, high-res copy. • It is a quick and reliable way to freeze the degradation of the surface of a disc. • A certain depth of field is granted by well known photographic principles. • Film is a small, cheap, stable medium.

Saphir: Optical Playback of Damaged and Delaminated Analogue Audio Disc Records JEAN-HUGUES CHENOT, LOUIS LABORELLI, JEAN-ÉTIENNE NOIRÉ, Institut National de l’Audiovisuel, France 14 The goal of optical playback of analogue audio discs records has been pursued since at least 1929. Several different approaches have been demonstrated to work. But in most cases the playback quality is worse than using mechanical playback. The Saphir process uses a specifically designed colour illuminator that exploits the reflective properties of the disc material to highlight subtle changes in orientation of the groove walls, even at highest frequencies (20kHz).

Traditionally, a curator or keeper of a cultural heritage institution e. A traditional curator's concern necessarily involves tangible objects of some sort — artwork, collectibles, historic items or scientific collections. More recently, new kinds of curators have started to emerge: curators of digital data objects and biocurators. In smaller organizations, a curator may have sole responsibility for acquisitions and even for collections care. The curator makes decisions regarding what objects to select, oversees their potential and documentation, conducts research based on the collection and its history, provides proper packaging of art for transportation, and shares research with the public and community through exhibitions and publications. In very small, volunteer-based museums such as those of local historical societies, a curator may be the only paid staff-member. In larger institutions, the curator's primary function is that of a subject specialist, with the expectation that he or she will conduct original research on objects and Curating Research the organization in Curating Research collecting. Such institutions can have multiple curators, each assigned to a specific collecting area e. In such organizations, the physical care of the Curating Research may be overseen by museum collections-managers or by museum conservators, with documentation and administrative matters such as personnel, insurance, and loans handled by a museum registrar.

While the process is associated with Japanese craftsmen, the technique was also applied to ceramic pieces of other origins including China, Vietnam, and Korea. Kintsugi became closely associated with ceramic vessels used for chanoyu Japanese tea ceremony. When it was returned, Japanese Art with ugly metal staples, it may have prompted Japanese Art craftsmen to look for a more aesthetic means Japanese Art repair. As a philosophy, kintsugi can be seen to have similarities to the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi Japanese Art, an embracing of the flawed or imperfect. This can be seen as a rationale for keeping an object around even after it has broken and as a justification of kintsugi itself, highlighting the cracks and repairs as simply an event in the life of an object rather Japanese Art allowing its service to end at the time of its damage or breakage, and can be seen as a variant of the adage "Waste not, want not". Not only is there no attempt to hide the damage, but the repair is literally illuminated Mushin is often literally translated as "no mind," but carries connotations of fully existing within the moment, of non-attachment, of equanimity amid changing conditions. The Japanese Art of existence over time, to which all humans are susceptible, could not be clearer than in the breaks, the knocks, and the shattering to which ceramic ware too is subject.
