Editor's Notes
- The cooperation resulted in large volumes of images, and here are some figures to demonstrate the extent of the work. Additional material is there
- I would like to show you that it is not an easy process and it is not only about scanning. The technical scanning is the easy part. 3 participants Visit to the local archive – can be eseveral times. The understanding of the project is crucial to understanding what and how would we scan and categorize e.g. Tzafrir project of the Israeli museum – we scanned the envelopees and the notes that were attached to the imagese, which gives the local archive the ability to search by, otherwise would have been lost Holon museum (caricatures) – we ebuilt an exccel spreadsheet that the museum filled, which gave the DB the combination of the fields that are neot necessarily relevant to harvard. * Scanned a few examples to measure the dpi and the size of the image that will eventually be presented in the local archive. SCAN – adjust the scan method to the physical – frames that keep damaged slides Clean the film Translation – why is it important to open every file? For example we got a title of “Namer” in English = Tiger. In fact one it was a child that was dressed as a tiger and in another is was a group of soldiers who volunteered in the Hatasha war After the srika – and now starts the Hard word Caricatures
- Israeli SUN Original: Yom Kippur Post enhancement – 101 km from Kahir, where the seize-fire agreement was signed.
- Olivia – Cataloging System VIA – Virtual Information Access Deletion – In the Haramati collection you saw yesterday, a lot of picture variations for the same play – different expression
