Abstract
Abstract The interview by Federica Goffi with curator and researcher Annet Dekker focused on the archival futures of born digital media. Dekker discussed her 2014–2016 collaboration with Het Nieuwe Instituut (HNI), through the speculative project: New Archive Interpretations, which probed into the digital archive as a system of how processes and individuals influence what can and cannot be seen, accessed, distributed, and re-used. Dekker discussed topics such as the dynamic and stable nature of physical and digital archives; the interdependence between born digital media and software and its impact on conservation; the relation between co-production and authorship; and the vital curatorial questions regarding inclusion/exclusion, omission/promotion of materials. Dekker warns about dark archives and the complexity of technical infrastructures and metadata reflecting ideological constructs and socio-cultural views. The interview questioned whether living digital archives can blur the line between the projective dimension of materials and retrospective conservation.
摘要Federica Goffi对策展人兼研究员Annet Dekker的采访聚焦于天生数字媒体的档案未来。Dekker通过推测性项目“新档案解释”讨论了她与Het Nieuwe Instituut(HNI)在2014-2016年的合作,该项目探讨了数字档案作为一个系统,将过程和个人如何影响哪些内容可以被看到、访问、分发和重复使用。德克尔讨论了一些主题,如物理和数字档案的动态和稳定性质;天生的数字媒体和软件之间的相互依存关系及其对保护的影响;合作制作与作者关系;以及关于材料的纳入/排除、遗漏/推广的重要策展问题。德克尔警告说,黑暗的档案以及反映意识形态结构和社会文化观点的技术基础设施和元数据的复杂性。采访质疑活的数字档案是否会模糊材料的投影维度和追溯性保护之间的界限。
期刊介绍:
Architecture and Culture, the international award winning, peer-reviewed journal of the Architectural Humanities Research Association, investigates the relationship between architecture and the culture that shapes and is shaped by it. Whether culture is understood extensively, as shared experience of everyday life, or in terms of the rules and habits of different disciplinary practices, Architecture and Culture asks how architecture participates in and engages with it – and how both culture and architecture might be reciprocally transformed. Architecture and Culture publishes exploratory research that is purposively imaginative, rigorously speculative, visually and verbally stimulating. From architects, artists and urban designers, film-makers, animators and poets, from historians of culture and architecture, from geographers, anthropologists and other social scientists, from thinkers and writers of all kinds, established and new, it solicits essays, critical reviews, interviews, fictional narratives in both images and words, art and building projects, and design hypotheses. Architecture and Culture aims to promote a conversation between all those who are curious about what architecture might be and what it can do.
