<br />
He begins with a reference from IEEE <i>Computer Archaeology</i> 2011 - "... the <i>emerging</i> field of computational archaeology..." and the characterisation of the discipline as an 'emerging' field, which it is not. Huggett examines the terms archaeological informatics, archaeological computing, computer archaeology, computational archaeology, archaeological information science google - and performs a text analysis, using google, google scholar, and ngrams to measure and chart the terminology over time.<br />
<br />
What has everyone been doing for over 20 years if the field is emerging? Clearly that <b>is</b> a nonsense!<br />
<br />
He also examines why we use certain terms - and often it is for tactical convenience, to get money, jobs, grants, create centres - these terms, these word choices are political.<br />
<br />
The term Digital Archaeology is used too in an <i>Internet Weekly</i> magazine US and Europe - to look at the history of computing...<br />
<br />
He asks, does the usage of certain terms make any difference at all? <br />
<br />
Yes - as in process of naming and renaming, questioning academic legitimacy, thinking about the intellectual core of the discipline, considering rigour, and the value of the contributions we make in what he calls an 'Anxiety discourse'... I recognise this too from a DH standpoint.<br />
<br />
This is part of discipline building... and refers repeatedly to DH (Digital Humanities)...<br />
<br />
There is only 'one' journal - <i>Archeologicia E Calcolatori</i> - I'd argue this point, as Hugget's own <i>Internet Archaeology</i> has been very useful for me in the past<br />
<br />
Again he gives an good example from DH - with humanities scholars not citing DH journals...<br />
<br />
All of these acts on the impact of a discipline - the naming of journals, citation etc<br />
<br />
Is the discipline transformative he asks? Are we making an impact - are AC scholars equally good in their topic? Is AC simply a methodology or a series of techniques? Can it give something new to the discipline? <br />
<br />
His apt Southampton example is the human genome project, and he asks where is our grand challenge?<br />
These disciplinary concerns and anxieties are reflected in DH too - and the focus on words, meaning and definition also made me feel at home in this plenary. It was a provoking, motivating presentation. My reportage is limited by my typing speed, but I do hope that the overall sense of the talk was conveyed.<br />

The NeDiMAH Network will examine the practice of, and evidence for, advanced ICT methods in the arts and humanities across Europe, and articulate these findings in a series of outputs and publications. To accomplish this, NeDiMAH will provide a locus of networking and interdisciplinary exchange of expertise among the trans-European community of digital arts and humanities researchers, as well as those engaged with creating and curating scholarly and cultural heritage digital collections. NeDiMAH will maximise the value of national and international e-research infrastructure initiatives by developing a methodological layer that allows arts and humanities researchers to develop, refine and share research methods that allow them to create and make best use of digital methods and collections. Better contextualization of ICT Methods will also build human capacity, and be of particular benefit for early stage researchers.</span></span></span></span></div>

This is a new format that crosses the boundaries of Old Media and the New (if you acknowledge the binary!) cross media ( maps, blogs, etc) and locative digital technology are used frequently in these productions intercut with standard linear video.</div><div><br /></div><div>Refers to Lev Manovich considering the differences between the Database and the Narrative...

He speaks about 'personalised' tv as the future. <div><br /></div><div>We have a TV in our pockets with a smartphone - there is a problem with definition - where our traditional idea of the set - the idiot box - the channel, and how content is mediated through all of that apparatus is changing. He identifies new modes for the transmission of information - and asks... 'What would Google Do?' and also 'What would Facebook Do?'</div><div>WWGD - they are organising the world's information</div><div>WWFD - they are sharing the world's information</div><div><br /></div><div>Even with the advent of iplayers, or the rte player, or channel 4 on demand 4OD, </div><div>95% of tv is watched within 24 hours of being scheduled (Deloitte, 2012) we are still governed by our schedule and the time of the day - so this new concept of 'Connected tv' - what is it - because it still delivers a real time watercooler effect.</div><div><br /></div><div>We now have new devices - that map on to the 'Connected tv' experience with the idea of the companion screen, the 'phone, laptop or iPad that we are using while watching a film or tv at home. This idea is not new, when you think about it we have always multitasked with tv - eating, 'phone calls, newspapers etc., except that now we are watching a film on tv while checking out facebook, checking a twitterfeed or flicking through flickr.</div><div><br /></div><div>Film on TV is no longer just about a 2 hour slot on a schedule - so producers need to maximise the 'event' and build marketing/interest around that slot in order to create that sense of 'event'.</div><div><br /></div><div>The Connected tv is a SMART tv too - it is no longer the idiot box...</div><div><br /></div><div>Youtube came out with 100 linear channels - Ireland has 5 channels in 50 years. Brodeur's </div><div><a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.aertv.ie">Aertv</a> - has created 2 channels since October 2011 - unique Music content, Film linked to the Jameson Dublin International Film Festival <a href="http://www.jdiff.com">JDIFF</a>, what they are doing is unique. The 2009 broadcasting act in Ireland is such that, unlike other domains, - they can stream the national channels while they are happening...</div><div><br /></div><div>So - you can't compare linear tv with VOD - it is like comparing apples and oranges - we are now in an environment with lots of screens, lots of social media, Netflix (is available on 450 devices) every internet tv will have its own viewing experience (open up device and get a new homepage...).</div><div><br /></div><div>Brodeur argues that in terms of broadcasting history and development we are now in stage 3 - the consumers are in control! It may take people a lot of time to change their tvs, but the revolution will be televised.</div>Orlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02650260284917648086noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133984336810504533.post-66354316803729289352012-03-10T06:34:00.005-08:002012-03-12T10:35:28.782-07:00New Cinemas - Changing Audiences<a href="http://newcinemas-changingaudiences.com/dr-stefano-baschiera-queens-university-belfast-uk">Dr Stephano Baschiera</a> from QUB speaks about "Streaming European Cinema: Online Distribution and the Film Industry in Europe" at the IRCHSS 'New Ideas' Research Project Pilot Workshop, at <a href="http://newcinemas-changingaudiences.com/">New Cinemas- Changing Audiences</a>, at UCC, March 10th 2012. He looks at streaming film distributors, particularly Netflix, and the home entertainment market. In particular he looks at Chris Anderson's idea of The Long Tail (2004) applied to Amazon and Netflix. <div><br /></div><div>Often it is not blockbusters, but niche and unique films that are most often downloaded. The digital shift is recognised in MEDIA within the EU, simultaneously the move to streamed distribution is not as negatively regarded as a 'straight to DVD' distribution. There is room for innovation and for small budget films.</div><div><br /></div><div>Key issues raised:</div><div>European cinema is still considered as art cinema - </div><div>Geoblocking creates an IP nation, ISP services and national legislation all intervene in terms of publication and access... it seems to me that just as with text, the SOPA, PIPA, and ACTA type legislation seeks to create borders where, say in terms of radio, there are none. This aspect equally affects text.</div><div>The power of corporations, especially Hollywood is still significant - they need to grow and Europe is another market. </div><div><br /></div><div>Social Media too - with merchandising as an end - is in development, using say Facebook, as well as Foursquare, using customer data to push other media and merchandise. </div><div><br /></div><div>The idea of how publication and distribution happens is equally important for a variety of media - it is interesting to see how theories, and texts central to this discussion are also central to an understanding of how book publication has changed. Paramount is producing Ultra Violet. <i>The Dark Night</i> App is available free - where interactivity with the film is provided at an entry level, the customer then buys other content (also the film <i>Inception</i> is available) to populate the app.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Orlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02650260284917648086noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133984336810504533.post-43608413466881486062012-02-23T07:51:00.003-08:002012-03-25T12:10:04.912-07:00Digital LiteracyThe key issue of digital literacy and professional digital education was prevalent across all sessions at the Archaeological Archives as a Resource. Caitriona Crowe's proposed network would address many of the key issues of continuous professional development - as a standards led digital environment will (should be) a basis for any funding by the state or the EU, and we also need to act now to ensure that future work is not hampered by choices now - for instance choosing an xml based entry or record system rather than PDF will help future participants.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The rapidity of technological advance means that upskilling is crucial, but also reinforces the need for basic open standards for digitisation and metadata - robust metadata that withstands the vagaries of software is essential. Open data is at the centre of these concerns - work paid for by the state must be accessible to the taxpayer - and that means the data, and not just the report of one individual which, while crucial is not the only output necessary for future engagement with our archaeological heritage.</div>Orlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02650260284917648086noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133984336810504533.post-73738305823293106662012-02-23T04:46:00.001-08:002012-03-25T12:05:31.428-07:00Stuart Jeffrey - Surviving the Digital Dark AgesArchaeological archives as a resource - part of the ADS the <a href="http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/">Archaeological Data Service</a>. Stuart gives a good diagram about information entropy - from Jeff Rothenberg, RAND Corp., 1997 - in the '90s digital information was supposed to be the solution to this. Yet hardware mass storage formats are changing constantly, still hardware is not the key issue - the key issue is software and migration. He examines the tension between the collapsing cost of storage and the size of data collected. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
He maintains that the cost of ingest and management remains the same - whether a digital or a paper archive. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One solution is OAIS - open archival information systems - he describes their <a href="http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archsearch/">ARCHsearch</a> technology, which is excellent. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) have made a huge difference - a permanently resolvable URL - it is a huge step forward as a way of citing digital archives...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
He speaks about Europeana, and Linked Data too, finishes with a list of challenges - such as the permanent flux of technology, and automated ingest, search paradigms and research/commercial culture. The successes are tool development like OASIS and FISH, the integration into workflow is crucial, embedded into funding bodies, publishing and outreach.</div>

He chooses to highlight the access problem, and the legal title problem. He addresses the reasons for the problem - the lack of capacity is one. This is exacerbated with low staffing levels in the museum sector - these are risible in contrast with a similar sized area, Wales. The second problem is in planning policy - while developers are to fund, to enable public participation in excavations, they are not required to fund long-term curation of the data. He advocates the revision of PPS 6. <a href="http://www.niaf.co.uk/">NIAF</a> the Northern Ireland Archaeological Forum has prioritised the archives issue.Orlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02650260284917648086noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133984336810504533.post-67137830098711508492012-02-23T04:13:00.000-08:002012-03-25T12:28:46.724-07:00Anthony Corns of the Discovery Program on The Data Volume ProblemAnthony Corns of the Discovery Program, speaking at the Royal Irish Academy (RIA), he advocates digtial archiving, moving from the pilot Share It program - and is involved now in the ArcLand european international project. ArcLand is concerned with creating a Spatial Data Infrastructure SDI - which is as far as he is concerned the 'glue' that holds it all together. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Issues arise such as:<br />
building shared resources, </div>
<div>
allowing for the reuse of archaeology data,</div>
<div>
reuse of technology /policy developed in other domains using things like Creative Commons</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
They decided to build a trusted digital repository and spatial server - using D Space rather than Fedora.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>2012 - 2014</b></div>
<div>
ArcLand Heritage Data Knowledge they are getting the data migrated into archive and web services established</div>
<div>

<div>
Standards are critical</div>
<div>
Access via Europeana?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
How to we access it all? Rather than just accessing it - we have to give it back in a structured way. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This reinforces everything that I have previously being saying on this blog with regard to structuring the knowledge as it is created, rather than trying to retrofit in a situation where there are few resources.</div>Orlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02650260284917648086noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133984336810504533.post-57955933668409558532012-01-06T07:40:00.000-08:002012-01-06T07:41:54.702-08:00A new Web Editor for Aigne<div>Aigne's current <b>web editor</b> will be leaving us after this edition so if anyone would like to learn the necessary coding, style sheets and other requirements of the Publishing Unit that Aigne must adhere to, please contact me or Niamh Nic Chonmara before this coming <b>Monday 9th Jan.</b></div> <div><br /></div> <div>Our web editor works directly with Peter Flynn in the Publishing Unit of UCC.

The difference here it seems, is that the production team took a tweet as being from a particular source, but that tweet was not from where it appeared to be from. It was not checked - no one looked at the other tweets from the source, or checked to look at the tweets from the political party it claimed to represent - and the result (we voters in Ireland know) was 'earth shattering'. New media and old media are not the same - the new mimics the old, but is utterly different in many respects.
