District 6 Museum
Challenges:
Remote access to archive and collection, changing business models, sustainability, education of staff to actively take steps to digitisation, policy for digital transformation of archive and collection, access to talent, implementing digital transformation, developing the correct naming convention for digital artefacts
Data set available:
The museum has digitised quite a number of images in it's archive, but not all of it - we digitise as needed. Some material, like AV documentation of project work and oral history interviews, are born digital. We have a number of oral history transcripts at our disposal.
Problem statement
Creating access to archive through curated project content. Creating access /use of archive in online educational game.
