[MCN-L] [DM SIG:]2013 MCN Presentations from DMSIG
Hi all, Great ideas. I'd also love to see a session on the procedures and the underlying technical means by which certain museums are providing Open Access images to end users. This would be focused more on the nuts and bolts (from infrastructure to user experience) of image delivery than on image production or management, but it sure would be interesting. A key aim could be to learn how some Open Access image providers are balancing optimally efficient delivery (minimizing both friction for users and allocated internal staff time) with the capture of meaningful use metrics (i.e., anything more than a raw log of image downloads). Having floated this, maybe I should organize a session proposal Rob Rob Lancefield Manager of Museum Information Services / Registrar of Collections Davison Art Center, Wesleyan University 301 High Street, Middletown CT 06459-0487 USA rlancefield [at] wesleyan [dot] edu | tel. 860.685.2965 On 11/13/2012 2:58 PM, Jana Hill wrote: Hi Chris et al., In addition to those ideas, DM SIG table #2 at the luncheon was very interested in seeing some presentations on digital preservation strategies for both still and moving images.

A few back of the envelope ideas that were tossed around at the conference for topics for next year were: 3D Imaging, Partnering with Conservation for imaging (which would be a good way to draw more conservation talks into the mix), and a panel discussion by institutions doing multi/hyper spectral imaging. These are by no means exhaustive as a list of possible topics but rather a way to get the conversation started.

Chris and all, Great! Now I'm even sorrier I had to miss your session (I was speaking in another room). Also, based on the print program's short abstract, I had mistakenly thought you would be focusing on policy and stakeholder buy-in, not on delivery implementation. It's good to know that the Open Access implementation topic actually did surface as well in Seattle. Chris (and John and Melissa), your Yale team was also on my shortlist of people to tap for a cross-institutional session proposal with this different targeted subtopic next year. Let's talk offlist about this! cheers, Rob On 11/15/2012 10:58 AM, Edwards, Chris wrote: Funny, this is almost EXACTLY what John ffrench (Yale University Art Gallery), Melissa Fournier (Yale Center for British Art) and I presented on this year at MCN. http://www.mcn.edu/opening-access-works-public-domain-yale-university Chris.

I'd be willing to pull together a session on preservation strategies. I'm hardly an expert, but there's a year to do it and it's an area that interests me. Also, although not in the realm of digital imaging, I'd like to see audio preservation added to the mix.

Not quite sure of the title - but I would add something like Emergent [or experimental] Media. During the closing of MCN2012, we broke out into mini groups and discussed a few topics. One of the topic areas that I sat in on was Emerging Hardware (think 3D Printing and Augmented Reality). See wiki for discussion : http://www.mcn.edu/3d-printing-and-emerging-hardware Personally, I'd like to see a discussion around RD of FabLab (fabircation lab) type spaces in museums, centered around the question How can museums facilitate innovation? I did a brief presentation re: networks (presentation here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/plf2myrziaktxkf/artsTech-mcn2012.pdf) that touched on this idea, but there's more room for discussion. When Facebook and Twitter were first emerging as viable communication channels, we were seeing a good deal of innovation in how we were communicating with the public. Here's an event we did in 2010 that looked at how artists are using social media to create new work : http://www.arrowrootmedia.com/2010/02/02/social-media-week-nyc-2010/ I'm curious how this practice of innovation can continue in our community and beyond. web: http://arrowrootmedia.com cell: 646-339-9410 On Thu, Nov 15, 2012 at 9:53 AM, Edwards, Chris chris.edwards at yale.eduwrote: Thanks for everyone's interest! So far heres what we have: Proposed topics for MCN 2013 1.3D Imaging 2.Partnering with Conservation for imaging 3.Panel discussion by institutions doing multi/hyper spectral imaging 4.Open Access technical Infrastructure 5.Digital preservation strategies for both still and moving images ? Chuck Patch 6.Stitching for preservation imaging oversize materials (apertures to algorithms) 7.Lossless, Visually lossless, Perceptually lossless, and Lossy JP2 profiles, compression schemes, color management, and digital preservation 8.Panel on studio production management: techniques, tracking systems, metrics, cost control, etc. Again, these are mostly only proposed, not actual so lets keep discussing and refining. Any other ideas would be most welcome!

We had a really good time. However One of the largest issues I had with the conference this year was the total lack of presentations on imaging. This clearly puts the ball in our court and Id like to have us as a group come up with several proposals to submit for next years conference. Since we are all extremely busy, it is entirely appropriate to begin these discussions now. As chair of the Digital Media SIG I will do my part in officially underwriting proposals emanating from this group to aid in their acceptance. A few back of the envelope ideas that were tossed around at the conference for topics for next year were: 3D Imaging, Partnering with Conservation for imaging (which would be a good way to draw more conservation talks into the mix), and a panel discussion by institutions doing multi/hyper spectral imaging. These are by no means exhaustive as a list of possible topics but rather a way to get the conversation started. Please reply to this thread with any other ideas you may have and Id like to get some of them pinned down and get them pitched for the conference. If you need any incentives, the conference next year will be in Montreal, home of poutine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine and Molson. I look forward to good presentations on digitization and artery hardening fare!

Hi All, It's so exciting that you are already working on next year's topics! Dale Kronkright and Megan Jacobs did an excellent session this year on capturing one-to-one 3D imaging that can be used for research (as opposed to the 123D Catch quick approximations.) Dale showed how this is being used to monitor shifts and changes in the Georgia O'Keeffe Abiquiu home. They also walked us through RTI capturing techniques using pretty accessible equipment. Looking at the topics below, it might be good to keep them in the loop.

Hi Liz - yes - the work Dale and Liz did was fantastic!! They were one of the topics of discussion here : http://www.mcn.edu/3d-printing-and-emerging-hardware web: http://arrowrootmedia.com cell: 646-339-9410 On Thu, Nov 15, 2012 at 10:36 AM, Elizabeth Neely eneely at artic.edu wrote: Hi All, It's so exciting that you are already working on next year's topics!
