The social and technological challenges of augmenting the ABC’s archival collection: Creating cultural objects
•Download as PPT, PDF•
2 likes•827 views
Given the provocation that cultural institutions should be engaging in mobile platforms to provide the public with improved access to their archival collections, many institutions have been experimenting with hybrid projects. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) facilitated one experiment during 2011 to understand how it could leverage augmented reality (AR) technologies to promote public access to its archival collections. This presentation describes one ABC AR project, MyBurb. MyBurb was developed to publish ABC Australian suburban archives, while also encouraging users to contribute their personal collections to co-create an historical urban landscape. Burgess and Banks (2010) define co-creation as “the ways in which platform providers (however imperfectly) integrate user-participation into their own models of production” (2010, p. 298). Co-creation at the ABC aligns with its public service remit to foster national culture and engage the public sphere (Cunningham, 2013).

1. The document discusses using virtual learning environments (VLEs) to teach digital humanities. It provides examples of four digital humanities projects - LORE, Old Bailey, TAPoR, and NINES - that have developed online tools and databases.
2. LORE allows users to gather and organize web resources, tag them, describe links between resources, and publish collections for others. The Old Bailey site provides a searchable database of trial records. TAPoR is a portal that collects texts and allows analysis tools to operate on them. NINES aggregates peer-reviewed digital objects and provides tools for research and analysis.
3. The document advocates using VLEs and digital humanities tools
Academic Access to TV archives (HILL, KERRIGAN and MÄUSLI)
The document summarizes a conference on academic access to television archives that brought together archivists, television professionals, and academics. It discusses challenges around discovering, accessing, and making available historical television material held in archives. It also reports on a survey of 39 archives in 23 countries that found academic researchers occasionally or often use most archives for research, but restrictions relate mainly to copyright. The document advocates for closer collaboration between archives and academics to uncover new histories, identify significant materials, and enhance public awareness and value of archival collections.

Users of archives in a world of social media (BROCH)
This document discusses users of archives in the digital age. It provides statistics on user demographics and interests from the danskkulturarv.dk website. Three archetypes of users are described: the sharing user, the independent user, and the interested user. The document also outlines an outreach project called "Your Town - A Part of History" which used Facebook videos and interactive stories to engage users. Feedback from visitors showed they were impressed with the project and how new technologies can be used to connect with history. The presenter's key points are: don't underestimate users as they are partners; users now interact instead of just consuming; show your expertise while involving users and having conversations to promote understanding.

Cynefin: A Sense of Place
From the CNI Fall 2014 conference in Washington:
http://www.cni.org/topics/digital-libraries/developments-in-digital-repositories/
The National Library of Wales has developed a large number of digital resources (including newspapers, archives, manuscripts and photographs) that are freely available as a national digital public library for Wales. Development of this material has involved research and innovation in all aspects of the digital life cycle, and development of an underlying digital infrastructure, to support the creation of open and sustainable digital collections that can be used, and re-used, by the widest range of stakeholders. Central to this has been the development of digital content in collaboration with national and international partners. This presentation will discuss this national context for Cynefin, a recent project developed in collaboration with the Archives and Records Council Wales (ARCW) and funded by the UK’s Heritage Lottery Fund. The project will digitize over a thousand tithe maps covering 95% of Wales between the period 1838 and 1947. The project has explored new approaches to crowd sourcing to geo locate the tithe maps and transcribe related apportionments, and also to develop links between content in the collections, linking location, ownership, land use and value. The project has also had to find innovative ways to digitize large tithe maps, including the use of an automated tripod head originally developed to capture panoramic landscapes and the construction of a specifically designed wall to ensure a consistent horizontal distance from the camera. The digital images have been ingested into a Fedora repository and shared using the IIIF standard. The crowd-sourcing element will be released to the public at the beginning of November 2014 and the initial results of the uptake and engagement of volunteers will be discussed in the presentation. The digital preservation of the tithe maps, apportionments and the crowd-sourced data will present future challenges, and approaches to these issues will also be discussed. This project is a potential model for other institutions to leverage the resources of the crowd to produce a useful and enduring digital humanities resource.

Introduction to archival research
This document provides an introduction to archival research. It explains that archives contain unique collections of materials created by individuals, families, and organizations over time. Archivists organize these diverse collections using the principle of provenance to keep items from different sources together. Finding aids are used to describe archival collections and include information like the title, dates, contents, and formats of materials. The document recommends several resources for finding digital finding aids like ArchiveGrid and provides examples of different types of archival collections.
Vienna
The document summarizes the author's 10-day trip to Vienna, Austria in August. They visited many famous landmarks around the city including Schonbrunn Palace, St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Hofburg Imperial Palace, and explored areas like the 1st District on foot. The author also traveled outside Vienna to places like Salzburg, Baden, and the Abbey of the Holy Cross. They attended seminars at the University of Vienna and spent afternoons learning about Vienna's history and culture through its churches, museums, and parks.
What is an archivist?
The document discusses how Krista Ferrante would explain archives to non-archivists. She would begin with a definition of archives as materials created or received by organizations and individuals that are preserved for their enduring value. She would then explain that archives contain a wide variety of materials, including research data, emails, photos, videos, and blueprints. Finally, she would note that archivists can help users access these materials, assist with research and teaching, maintain collections, advise on preserving personal materials, advocate for better recordkeeping, and help mitigate risks to information.
What Does An Archivist Do?
A world-renowned autograph expert, Nelson Deedle has traveled extensively for archival research projects. Before establishing an online celebrity autograph business, Nelson Deedle also worked as an archivist for The Elliott Roosevelt Estate.
Multimethod research
A mixed methods approach involves collecting, analyzing, and integrating both quantitative and qualitative data within a single study or series of studies. While some argue it results in invalid studies, others believe quantitative and qualitative approaches can be compatible if used to complement each other's strengths. Mixed methods research can provide stronger evidence through triangulation, answer a broader range of questions, and increase generalizability, but it is also more complex, resource-intensive, and time-consuming than single method designs. There are different ways to sequence the quantitative and qualitative elements, such as explanatory or exploratory designs.
Introduction to archival research 2015
This document provides an introduction to archival research. It discusses what archives are, the different types of archives that exist, how to find relevant archival materials, and how to prepare for a visit to an archive. The key points covered include: defining what an archive is and the different repositories that house archival materials; using online finding aids like the National Archives Discovery to locate relevant collections; bringing proper identification and materials for copying or note-taking on an archive visit; and considering any restrictions or rules at particular archives. Tips are provided for non-native English speakers conducting archival research, such as using a digital camera to photograph documents.
Archival Arrangement, Description & Access
Archival Arrangement, Description & Access Digital Library of the Caribbean Partner Visit to University of Miami, July 2013
Archiving
The document discusses several key aspects of archiving, including:
1. Archives contain unique records of enduring value that are arranged and described in groups, unlike libraries which use standardized organization.
2. Records refer to documents created or received by an organization, while archives are records selected for historical preservation in an archival institution.
3. The development of archival organization over centuries has established principles such as provenance, original order, and descriptive cataloging to facilitate preservation and access.
Archival research
Archival research provides valuable information for social science research. Key points include:
- Archives preserve important historical records like documents, publications, and materials that provide insight into the past.
- Researchers can use archival materials as primary sources to learn about history from the perspective of original records and uncover details not widely known.
- It is important to understand the language, context and potential biases of archival sources to accurately interpret the information they provide.

Wikipedia and Africa at ECAS 2015
Iolanda Pensa discusses the important role scholars can play in contributing to Wikipedia. Scholars can directly edit and improve Wikipedia articles related to their expertise, especially regarding content about Africa which is currently limited. They can also indirectly contribute by encouraging students to write and translate articles, working with academic journals to publish Wikipedia-related content, and sharing content under open licenses. Pensa draws on her experience with projects like WikiAfrica and Wikipedia Primary School that aim to increase and improve African content on Wikipedia. Scholars' contributions are valuable for making specialized knowledge more accessible and supporting further research.

Crowdsourcing as Public Engagement
Crowdsourcing can be an effective way for cultural heritage institutions to engage the public by having them help with labor-intensive tasks like transcription. Examples where this has worked well include contributions to the Oxford English Dictionary, Wikipedia, transcription of over 47 million lines from Australian newspapers by local and family historians, and collection of over 1.5 million bird observations in one month by the eBird project. For crowdsourcing to be sustainable, interfaces need to be engaging; contributors need recognition; and crowdsourcing should be seen as part of a broader public engagement mission rather than just a single project.

‘I don’t want to live their lives!’ The dynamics of Vietnamese digital media
Vietnam demonstrates advanced levels of digital media use. Online content creators have adapted to thrive within a media ecology against non-authentic media by evolving towards experience translators. Through interviews with Vietnamese creative industry experts, online content creators and young users, this article articulates how Vietnamese digital media is similar to outside models but has its own distinctiveness, rewarding its users by providing a generally positive space for online communication. Through a de-Westernised lens, it is possible to observe Vietnamese digital media is broadly progressive, inclusive, and at an arms-length from hate speech, misinformation and vitriol content. Vietnam’s focus on positivity and support for communities over individuals has provided a burgeoning digital media market for a variety of industries. Vietnamese digital media demonstrates a pushback against commercially oriented individuals that use their platformed affordances for capital gain, in preference for content from what can be described as online experience intermediators.
Civic Algorithms: A digital intermediation challenge
How might generative artificial intelligence (AI) and automation be undertaken to produce social good? In an increasingly automated digital media world, user agency is challenged through the loss of interaction functionality on the platforms, technologies and interfaces of everyday digital media use. Instead, algorithmically designed decision making processes function for users to assist them in making sense of these environments as a means of assisting them to seek out content that is relevant, of interest and entertaining. However, if the last five years are anything to go by, these sorts of recommendations, particularly across social media, have caused anything but social cohesion and unity amongst users, and have instead spread misinformation, vitriol and hurtful media. Would our society be different had we designed systems that focused on, while still entertaining, content that places the wellbeing of humans at the forefront over content that is, for the most part, popular?
This presentation uses the lens of digital intermediation to explore how civic algorithms might be designed and implemented in digital spaces to improve social cohesion. By unpacking the technologies, institutions and automation surrounding the cultural production practices of digital intermediation, it becomes clearer how these leavers can be adjusted to nudge and encourage platforms, users and content creators to engage in improved civic processes. As a digital intermediation challenge, creating and working with civic algorithms presents as a potentially useful approach towards improving the cornerstone of our democracies by ensuring citizens have access to accurate information, are engaging in the discussions that are important and relevant to them, and are operating within digital environments that value social good alongside commercial gains.

What value of cultural analytics? Discerning value in digital environments
This document discusses the value of cultural analytics and content creators. It presents several theories on how individuals and groups determine value, including Schwartz's theory of basic human values. It also examines different types of cultural intermediation like Bourdieu's idea of taste agents and Negus' concept of market translators. The document suggests that current metrics used to measure online influencers often fail to capture important cultural values beyond commercial interests. Moving forward, more research is needed to develop new frameworks for determining value in digital environments and ensuring diverse content is properly recognized and supported.

The document discusses how social media trends and influencers have evolved over the past ten years. While platforms and influencers have adopted new features from apps like Snapchat and TikTok, the core nature of influencers has not significantly changed. However, creative agencies that work with influencers have evolved, now focusing more on metrics, influence, and content creation through data science. The document questions how real influence can be measured and how influencers could be used to build meaningful worlds for young audiences on social media.

From KPIs to KOLs: Regulating social media and influencers within Vietnam
The recent Facebook livestream by Nguyen Phuong Hang, which lasted for over three hours, vocally criticised, and called-out online celebrities for their dysfunctional behaviour, signifies a new era for social media and influencers within the country. As a key opinion leader (KOL) herself, Nguyen Phuong Hang has the capacity to swing public opinion, triggering a key regulatory moment for the Vietnamese government. As an already regulatory-tight country, Vietnam faces a paradoxical social media regulation moment: significant investment in its digital media future, while maintaining a consistent political line. As a result of this Facebook livestream, the Vietnamese government are looking to pressure KOLs and online influencers by increasing control over livestreaming: any social media account that has more than 10,000 followers must provide their contact information to the authorities. Social media platforms will be asked to remove content that has been flagged as problematic by government officials, highlighting Vietnam’s position on regulating foreign social media platforms, not only YouTube or Facebook specifically. This research draws on algorithmic visibility literature to examine the current state of regulation for Vietnamese social media users with a specific focus on KOLs. Drawing on several recent case studies, we highlight the current state of social media regulation in Vietnam, while also extrapolating the tension the country faces as it invests in and develops its digital and creative industries.

This talk discusses algorithmic public service media (PSM) as an automation mechanism and policy lever to ensure diversity and pluralism in media. While commercial algorithmic platforms focus on popularity, PSM is tasked with social good. Algorithmic PSM could connect specific media with niche audiences in contrast to biases of commercial algorithms. It examines how PSM can utilize digital media and algorithms to meet its obligations within an increasingly automated environment, including through personalization, diversity of exposure, and critical analytics to measure impact beyond vanity metrics. Algorithmic PSM represents an opportunity for governments to support public media organizations and engage with large technology platforms on a more level playing field.Shut it down or shape it up?

The document discusses the state of digital media in Vietnam in 2021. It notes tensions between the Vietnamese government and Facebook as the government seeks to regulate content on platforms. Digital media investment has grown significantly in recent years, but Vietnam ranks low on press freedom indices. Popular social media platforms in Vietnam include Facebook, YouTube, and Zalo, but government restrictions on political commentary are increasing. The document debates whether the government's approach to social media should be to shut platforms down or shape the content allowed on them.

The document discusses digital intermediation, which refers to the combination of data (online content producers) and algorithms (automated decision making within media systems) and how they create new forms of online communities and knowledge exchange. It examines digital influencers and micro-platformization, where digital agencies ensure advertisers receive the appropriate influencer. It proposes three potential applications of digital intermediation: applying it to public service media, policy recommendations on regulatory systems, and designing algorithmic transparency interfaces. The overall aim is to understand how this new media ecosystem works and provide recommendations to help media organizations engage audiences on important issues.

Blocked by YouTube - Unseen digital intermediation for social imaginaries in ...University of Sydney
YouTube is one of the most globally utilised online content sharing sites, enabling new commercial enterprise, education opportunities and facilities for vernacular creativity (Burgess, 2006). Its user engagement demonstrates significant capacity to develop online communities, alongside its arguably more popular use as a distribution platform to monetise one’s branded self (Senft, 2013). However, as a subset of Alphabet Incorporated, its access is often restricted by governments of Asian Pacific countries who disagree with the ideology of the business. Despite this, online communities thrive in these countries, bringing into question the sorts of augmentations used by its participants. This article reframes the discussion beyond restrictive regulation to focus on the DIY approach (augmentation) of community building through the use of hidden infrastructures (algorithms). This comparative study of key YouTube channels in several Asia Pacific countries highlights the sorts of techniques that bypass limiting infrastructures to boost online community engagement and growth. Lastly, this article reframes the significance of digital intermediation to highlight the opportunities key agents contribute to strengthening social imaginaries within the Asia Pacific region.Data Ethnography
