Diskussion Museum Computer Group: User generated / crowd-sourced geotagging? I'll just give one practical example..  Take an image such as one of the Normandy landings from the Imperial War Museum - http://bit.ly/cIr4zG.  The description tells us it was taken in Villers-Bocage.  I could then (or perhaps even an automated tool could) generate tags that put it in that locality.  And then someone who lives or visits there should be able to track it down pretty easily.  In fact people have done such things - see http://virtualfunzone.com/normandy-1944-then-and-now.html - but for all their effort, without that relatively small step that such a tool would have facilitated nothing has gone back to the original images.  Without that an opportunity of providing an enhanced experience, whether through a web tool like HistoryPin or via a mobile based AR app, is lost.

The Andy Warhol Museum released the AR Mobile App 'Layar'. "The Layar turns your mobile device into an augmented-reality viewer. By adding The Andy Warhol Museum Layar, you'll be able to view locations pivotal in Andy Warhol's life and work overlayed on real-time images from your device's camera. 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]

I was reminded of these two design principles when exploring the Johnny Cash Project, a crowd-created music video for a posthumous recording of Cash singing "Ain't No Grave." To construct the video, artist Chris Milk assembled images and footage of Johnny Cash in a sequence along with the song. That's hardly revolutionary. But what happened next is: Milk created a simple tool to invite visitors to augment the frames of the video with digital brushstrokes. The result is a beautiful animated video that composites together alternative frames created by participants all over the world.

"Mapping Main Street is a collaborative documentary media project that creates a new map of the country through stories, photos and videos recorded on actual Main Streets. The goal is to document all of the more than 10,000 streets named Main in the United States. We invite you to capture the stories and images of the country today. Go out, look around, talk to people, and contribute to this re-mapping of the United States."

HERE IS NEW YORK is not a conventional gallery show. It is something new, a show tailored to the nature of the event, and to the response it has elicited. The exhibition is subtitled "A Democracy of Photographs" because anyone and everyone who has taken pictures relating to the tragedy was invited to submit their images to the gallery, where they were digitally scanned, printed and displayed on the walls alongside the work of top photojournalists and other professional photographers.

Bob Meade has been one of our most prolific 'friends' on Flickr. He has done an enormous amount of tagging, added a great deal of additional research to our images, and was the man behind the discovery of the Mosman Bay Falls. Paula Bray (the Museum's Image Services Manager) and I conducted a long face to face interview with Bob who very generously agreed to speak to us about his background and motivations. It was an incredibly revealing interview that demonstrates the power of museums and cultural institutions opening up their collections to 'amateur' researchers and enthusiasts.

SFMOMA Art Scope: visual browsing tool for the online colleciton

Time travel through Bristol on the iPhone: The Time Traveller's Guide to Bristol project will launch a website later this week and an iPhone app at on July 28, allowing users to browse archive material and upload their own images of contemporary Bristol. It features 100 years of film and photography focused on six areas of Bristol, and invites users to superimpose archive material on a 3D model of contemporary shots - some of which were badly damaged during WW2, like Castle Park.

Ein Beispiel für neue Zielgruppen erreichen (s. Konferenzbeitrag Archimuse: http://www.archimuse.com/mw2008/abstracts/prg_335001837.html Our solution (in progress): - By creating many experiments across the widest range of existing social networking models we are making links with the local community who in turn show what the Gallery and the area is really about through their own images, ...- We always ensure we can back each experiment with adequate resources and talent to ensure a high quality result that does justice to the Gallery we represent.

"We've been keeping an eye on super-simple feed reader Lazyfeed for about six months now. Cofounder and CEO Ethan Gahng wrote us today to let us know about some exciting changes users will see tomorrow morning when the startup launches Lazyfeed Squared, the second version of the product. "In our previous version," he said, "users had to click on updated topics to see what's inside. That is not lazy. And it wasn't fun enough. With the new version, it's not just the topics that update - each topic has its own live updates which show the latest headlines along with images." "

Social Tagging-Projekt aus D.: Was machen wir, um diese Reproduktionen wiederzufinden, und zwar möglichst nach den unterschiedlichsten Kritereien geordnet? Manchmal wollen wir Bilder finden, die einen spezifischen Inhalt oder eine spezifische Form haben. Da die Möglichkeiten, über den Computer direkt auf die Reproduktion zuzugreifen, noch sehr beschränkt sind, vergeben wir Schlagworte, sogenannte Metadaten. Das ist ein sehr zeitraubendes Geschäft und kann am besten von einer großen Anzahl von Mitarbeiter/innen übernommen werden. Um diesen Beitrag bitten wir Sie mit diesem Spiel. ... Der zugrundeliegende Bilderbestand wird der Datenbank Artemis entnommen, die am Institut für Kunstgeschichte der LMU München in Zusammenarbeit mit der IT-Gruppe Geisteswissenschaften der Universität aufgebaut wurde und die inzwischen mehr als 25.000 Bilder enthält. Diese Version von ARTigo basiert auf einem führend von Dr. Gerhard Schön von der IT-Gruppe Geisteswissenschaften entwickelten Spiel. ... Die Idee für dieses Projekt stammt von Prof. Dr. Hubertus Kohle nach einem Gespräch mit Prof. Dr. François Bry über „Games with a Purpose".

Hinweis aus der Forumsksdiskussion Museum 3.0: http://museum30.ning.com/forum/topics/projects-linking-source I'm working on several projects linking the historic collections at the Pitt Rivers Museum with Indigenous source communities in Canada. Ironically,, I'm finding that the Indigenous groups are way more savvy about social media than this academic...So, we are posting images of objects on Flickr for people to think about before they come to Oxford to see them, have started a Facebook (invited) group for participants, and are thinking about other ways to use new media to create new relationships between museums and overseas source communities.
