On Saturday 29 April 2000 the V&A staged its first Day of Record, a proposed series of events cataloguing applied and decorative arts in relation to the body. Over 1500 tattooed people visited the Museum on that day to have their artworks photographed for inclusion in the V&A digital archive of tattoos. This site is the product of that day.
Placeography is a wiki where you can share the history of and stories about a house, building, farmstead, public land, neighborhood or any place to which you have a personal connection. If you don't have a place to contribute, please enjoy learning about others.
In 2002, the people of Ontario became the fortunate recipients of a time capsule vividly illustrating life in the province during the 1950s and 1960s when London television station CFPL generously donated 2,700 reels of news film to the Archives of Ontario.

ECHO's most recent web project is Learning from the People, a sub-site on WGBH's site Teachers' Domain. It draws on both Native and 'standard' (Euro-American) sources to examine two themes: traditional storytelling in the Native world, and Arctic climate change.

Seductive Subversion opens today and the show takes a look at the impact of women artists on the traditionally male-dominated field of Pop art. The exhibition team wanted to keep things simple in the gallery-a spare look, so the pop art would really pop out at you. At the same time, the team had a plethora of research about each of the 25 artists featured in the show and wanted a way to share that with the public. So, the goals of this endeavor became two-fold. First, how do we share the research and, second, how do we do it in a way that won't overwhelm the visitor experience? Wikipedia + iPads became the answer
Bilder schreiben Geschichte, doch selten sind der Geschichte so oft die gleichen Bilder verschrieben worden wie 1989/90 in Deutschland. Die Atmosphäre vor dem Mauerfall, der Alltag entlang des "Zeitenwechsels", aber auch die Parallelität von Euphorie und Verunsicherung bilden den Kern von bedeutsamen Erfahrungen, die in der Bilderflut selten durchschienen. Dies war der Anlass, noch einmal neu über die Bilder dieser Umbruchszeit nachzudenken und den privaten Bildern Raum zu gebe
The Andy Warhol Museum released the AR Mobile App 'Layar'. "The Layar turns your mobile device into an augmented-reality viewer.

View locations in Pittsburgh, PA and New York, NY and dive into related information and photos prepared by The Warhol's education curators." [the warhol]
Bletchley Park was the site of the United Kingdom's main codebreaking facility during the second world war. This is the place where the Enigma code that was used to encrypt military communications by Nazi Germany was broken. This is said to have brought the war in Europe to an end two years earlier than if the Enigma code had not been decrypted.
This is a collection of interviews with people who worked there
This afternoon I am going to try and answer this question, What can social media do for oral history. I am going to look at a few examples which caught my attention and talk about what we can learn from these projects.
Die Frage, wieso Weblogs in den Geschichtswissenschaften nicht viel selbstverständlicher genutzt werden, war für uns - neben Erwägungen zu den konkreten Problemen und Herausforderungen - von zentraler Bedeutung. Wir haben und entschieden, den Praktiker/innen das Wort zu geben, um aufgrund von konkreten Erfahrungen eine entsprechende Diskussion zu führen. Die Frage nach der Rolle von Weblogs zwischen Selbstreflexion, Selbstvermarktung und Vernetzung als Beitrag zum wissenschaftlichen Diskurs haben wir im Verlaufe des Nachmittags durchaus benannt und diskutiert.
