Terms and Conditions : exploring our becoming with the digital through designing objects for sensemakingFrögård, Maja January 2014 (has links)
Internet and digitalization is changing our reality. Blurring away physical boundaries the Cloud ignores geographical distances. It is an enormous space to share information globally, it provides us with spectacular possibilities, but how is our entanglement with this digital dimension affecting us? My aim is to explore our becoming with the digital and to evoke personal judgement in our everyday use of digital devices. I explore by challenging my preconceptions through confrontation with situations and events alien to me. My curiosity drives me to make sense of my environment. I make sense through designing, through making. My objects, the Haze, the Self Portal and Bad Habit/Phone cover, are all in different ways attemts to makes sense of immaterial aspects or phenomena in our relations to and through the digital. Through putting the objects in relation to your body you can yourself experience and feel these ambiguous relations and make bodily sense of them.

Public digital art and publics: The case of Hotel Yeoville (2010)Langa, Londiwe 26 August 2014 (has links)
This research looks at the Hotel Yeoville (2010) public digital art project and offers an analysis towards understanding how through this creative intervention a public discourse
can be inclusive of marginalised African immigrant groups living in South Africa.
The marginal status of African immigrant groups in South Africa, is consistently similar in
the digital arts field where there is no evident critique of the public art methods employed
by art practitioners in engaging these marginalised groups.
The agenda of Hotel Yeoville was particularly an attempt to counter the marginalising brutal and muted representations of these groups in mainstream media.
In order for this creative intervention to effect such change, its public element needed to
display a public vibrancy that was inclusive of the pluralistic opinions and voices of the
African immigrant groups.
However this public art project revealed paradoxes and complexities that are at the core
of public art practise, and also highlighted the ambivalence of a strong creative product
with an uncertain public‐ness.

Digital librarians: The challenges aheadSuman, Aparajita January 2006 (has links)
Poster paper / The advent of Information and communication technology has revolutionized the way information was accessed and disseminated; one of the most visible changes came in the arena of librarianship. Suddenly, the idea of easy, fingertip access to information became widely prevalent and phrases like "virtual library," "electronic library," "library without walls" and, most recently, "digital library," very popular. However, this produced a new and confusing bog of electronic "stuff" that is hard to find, hard to use, buried in restrictions, unreliable in content, and useless to researchers baffled by bad choices of material for expensive digitisation investments? Now, the question is sustaining digital libraries will require overcoming substantial uncertainties about long-term preservation, institutional commitments, and financing. AND here lies the challenge for the digital librarian!!!! Playing the balancing act between management, fast changing needs of the user community and ever changing information storage media and technologies.

Modeling System Reliability For Digital Preservation: Model Modification and Four-Copy Model StudyHan, Yan, Chan, Chi Pak January 2008 (has links)
Research has been studied to evaluate the reliability of storage media and the reliability of a computer backup system. In this paper, we use the Continuous Time Markov Chain to model and analyze the reliability of a computer backup system. We propose a modified model from that of the Constantopoulos, Doerr and Petraki [1]. We analyze the difference, show computational results, and propose new input parameters (e.g. time to repair) for the model from our experience. Further we developed a four-copy data model to test if it fulfills the sample reliability rate set by the RLG-NARA. The modeling process can be applied to construct models for computer preservation systems using different storage media. The reliability of constructed models can be calculated so that preservation institutions can have quantitative data to decide their preservation strategies.
