The document summarizes an Euscreen workshop on audiovisual heritage and participatory culture. It discusses using games and crowdsourcing to generate metadata tags for archival media collections. Players score points when their tags match another player's tag within 10 seconds, motivating fun competition. Over 500 people registered for the tagging game, generating over 340,000 tags for 600 archive items. While initial tags often described short segments and lacked specificity, applying ontology alignment could make the tags more useful for searching collections. The future involves moving toward more semantic tagging.

Sofou - VIRaL @EUscreen Mykonos
This document introduces VIRaL, a web-based image retrieval and localization system. VIRaL aims to retrieve visually similar images from a collection of over 1.1 million geotagged photos depicting urban landscapes. It can then localize a user's query photo by determining the location and identifying landmarks, linking them to Wikipedia entries. The system performs these tasks in under 4 seconds on average.
Ockeloen - EUscreen portal preview @EUscreen Mykonos
The document outlines four problems with a portal and proposes solutions:
1. The portal needs to be more than just 2x2 meters and show only relevant content for different user groups like researchers, educators, and kids.
2. The portal should remember individual user preferences so people aren't clicking through many pages to find what they want.
3. There needs to be a single starting point (portal) that allows users to easily access their preferred pages and tools with fewer clicks.
4. The portal needs flexibility to adapt to changing user needs over time, rather than being fully designed upfront before user requirements are clear.
Turnok, Kaye, Carrasqueiro - EUscreen content selection policy @EUscreen Mykonos
This document provides guidelines for content selection for the EUscreen project. It outlines three strands of content: historical topics, comparative virtual exhibitions, and content provider virtual exhibitions. For historical topics, content should be selected from 14 topics across genres and time periods. For comparative virtual exhibitions, content providers will contribute 5% of their content to each of two comparative themes. A timeline is provided to select the comparative exhibition themes by July 2010.
Buerger - W3C Media Annotation Working Group @EUscreen Mykonos
The W3C Media Annotation Working Group (MAWG) aims to facilitate metadata integration for media resources on the web. It is developing an ontology and API to provide unified access to metadata from various formats. The ontology defines common properties and mappings from standards like MPEG-7 and Dublin Core. It has been implemented in OWL and the API allows client-side access using the ontology properties. Current work includes finalizing the ontology implementation and testing mappings and the API. The goal is to resolve interoperability issues around media metadata on the web.

SAMT 2009 Johan Oomen
The document discusses several projects of the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision to improve access to audiovisual heritage. It describes their mass digitization project that is digitizing over 2 million items. It also discusses analyses of user search behavior that found people search more for fragments than whole programs. New technologies discussed for improving access include speech to text, video labeling games for social tagging, and visual concept detectors.
DISH09 Europeana Workshop: Leveraging community enthusiasm! – two examples
The document discusses two examples of leveraging community involvement in enriching the museum experience. The first is an 'on demand' digital archive where community members can socially tag and rate items to aid discovery. The second is a video labeling game where community members tag time-related metadata and help bridge semantic gaps to generate metadata for archival videos. Both aim to involve non-professionals to help contextualize and enrich museum collections through participatory approaches.
Baltussen_Europeana_WWI_Crowdsourcing_Waisda_FINAL.ppt
The document discusses several ways that cultural heritage organizations can utilize crowdsourcing, including classification, correction and transcription of materials, contextualization of collections, complementing existing collections through new contributions from the public, and co-curation with community input. It provides examples of several crowdsourced cultural heritage projects and discusses best practices and lessons learned for motivating the public and evaluating crowdsourcing initiatives.
FIAT-IFTA panel
This document discusses archiving interactive media like video games and websites. It notes that audiovisual archives should consider archiving these materials and that doing so could help document the evolution of media and society. The document also lists criteria for determining what games and websites to archive, such as popularity, cultural relevance, and showcasing the development of digital culture. It also mentions conducting a user survey to help inform decisions about game selection and archiving gameplay video as important for game preservation efforts.
Design for Mobile Workshop
This document summarizes Nancy Proctor's presentation on designing visitor-led mobile experiences for museums. The presentation covered interpreting content for mobile audiences, focusing on their questions and needs rather than dictating information. Proctor discussed moving from a top-down "headphones" model where the museum controls information, to a more open "microphone" approach where visitors can contribute their own questions, comments and knowledge. She provided examples of organizing content thematically or by location, and choosing appropriate platforms and voices to convey key messages to different audience types. The goal is engaging visitors and facilitating their own meaningful conversations about museum collections.
Extending play conference
This document discusses using Let's Play videos to preserve and present digital games as part of cultural heritage. It proposes recording Let's Plays at a museum, where game hobbyists, researchers, and others could play games and discuss their experiences. These videos would capture gameplay and add interpretive context. By making Let's Plays of the same games over time, they could show how games and their social significance change. Let's Plays offer an alternative way for people to access and experience games as part of cultural history.

Towards Culturally Aware AI Systems - TSDH Symposium
The document discusses culturally aware AI and polyvocality in knowledge graphs. It notes that most current knowledge graphs reflect a single perspective and contemporary sources, lacking polyvocality. The challenges of identifying polyvocal knowledge, representing polyvocality in models and data, and presenting polyvocal knowledge are discussed. Transparent data stories are proposed as a way to represent multiple perspectives on cultural objects through alternative storylines and making the underlying data and knowledge graph transparent.

Navigating Digital Archival Routes through European Television
This document provides the text of a farewell lecture given at Utrecht University about European digital television heritage and its potential to foster a sense of shared European identity and culture. The lecture discusses how digitization has enabled the creation of repositories like EUscreen that aggregate television content from across Europe. This allows for new opportunities to study television history from a comparative, cross-border perspective and help people engage with the diversity of Europe's cultural heritage. However, issues around copyright and the unequal digitization of archives across countries pose challenges. The lecture argues that television, through initiatives like EUscreen, can play an important role in developing a concept of "rooted Europolitanism," where people feel a dual identity and loyalty to both their local communities
Steven Stegers Moving Images in History Education
Content in Motion | Curating Europe’s Audiovisual Heritage Conference, December 3-4 2015; www.euscreenxl2015.eu
The teaching of film literacy is an “uncommon and sporadic practice”. This was the answer of 62% of the 6,701 teachers who participated in a European-wide survey. Only 5% teachers answered it is a “widespread and common practice”. Why is the teaching of film literacy not more widespread? Especially since having access to equipment is no longer a barrier and film and television have a major impact on the way young people see and understand the world. This session tries to see why moving images are not used more and what can be done. It will do so by looking into current practices, presenting potential use cases, and identifying learning objectives that can only be reached by using moving images.
Andreas Fickers: Transmedia Storytelling and Media History
Content in Motion | Curating Europe’s Audiovisual Heritage Conference, December 3-4 2015; www.euscreenxl2015.eu
The presentation focuses on the challenges and opportunities of transmedia storytelling in media history.
The massive digitization of historical sources and their online availability have a deep impact on the practice of doing history in the digital age and require new forms of historical research and storytelling. Drawing from studies in digital storytelling and multimedia narratives, this lecture aims at exploring new forms of non-linear historical storytelling online. In addition, it will address tensions between disciplinary traditions and a lack of scholarly recognition of new genres and formats of online scholarship.
Dean Jansen: Community-Driven Video Accessibility | Content in Motion
Content in Motion | Curating Europe’s Audiovisual Heritage Conference, December 3-4 2015; www.euscreenxl2015.eu
The presentation looks at the story of Amara – the world’s most popular crowdsourcing platform for subtitling video. The software was born out of a desire to see video become more accessible. This is made possible through the use of captions, for viewers with hearing loss, as well as subtitles, for anyone who doesn't speak the language a video was recorded in.
Amara is developed and maintained by a mission-driven nonprofit organization, the Participatory Culture Foundation. The platform has grown from a simple DIY tool into a complex ecosystem. Amara currently integrates volunteer and community-based approaches to subtitling, as well as professional services (for sustainability purposes).
Amara is used in many ways by individuals and organizations alike. Some people volunteer by captioning videos upon request, but there are also larger communities that gather around a specific organization or video publisher and translate videos – some into dozens of languages. Additionally, organizations including TED, the US National Archives, and Vimeo, have all used Amara to make video more broadly accessible.

Ina (Institut national de l’audiovisuel) was created in 1975. It is one of the world's largest broadcast archives, with collections spanning over 60 years for TV and 80 years for radio. As many documents in these collections take part in the narrative of history in the last century and onward, they are indispensable for education and training.

Content in Motion | Curating Europe’s Audiovisual Heritage Conference, December 3-4 2015; www.euscreenxl2015.eu
This paper is aimed first at analyzing the initial public impact of Histoire Parallèle/Die Woche vor 50 Jahren, which aired weekly first on la Sept and then on French-German TV channel Arte from 1989 to 2001.
The 55-minute show exploited newsreel material, systematically presenting it in the original full length after exactly 50 years after its initial release in movie theatres. It covered a period stretching from the beginning of World War II until the end of the Marshall Plan. It simultaneously illustrated contradictive perspectives of several nations at war with each other. This part of the show lasted for 40 minutes. Then, for the final quarter of an hour, the show’s mainstay host, historian Marc Ferro discussed the material presented with a guest, usually a scholar. Despite the fact that the show could never be sold to foreign channels or rebroadcast, it still arouses great interest. Therefore our paper intends to explore how and to what extent content curation may contribute to it becoming a transnational or European Lieu de mémoire.

The presentation explores Europeana’s framework for measuring impact (strategy2020.europeana.eu) and the role that curation can play in maximizing the impact of AV archives.
Over the past six years Europeana has developed into a full-blown platform, servicing a network of thousands of libraries, archives and museums across Europe. The most visible expression of this collective endeavour is a portal, which allows users to discover material from every member state and every domain in Europe. Europeana is now entering a new phase of its existence, which will be even more focused on the impact we can have together on our industry, the creative economy and social innovation.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
