El Turisme de memòria a Catalunya: realitat i perspectives d'un model incipient

Catalunya disposa a l’actualitat de nombrosos equipaments culturals destinats a la difusió memorial mitjançant la pràctica turística creant-se, tanmateix, les primeres estructures en xarxa per tal de fer que aquests espais disposin d’un relat conjunt, element indispensable en el qual recolzar-se a l’hora d’emprendre qualsevol estratègia de difusió. El model català, però, pot dir-se que està en fase embrionària, i des d’aquest moment en endavant ens correspon als professionals i acadèmics treballar de cara a la seva consolidació. Aquest estudi posa les bases per a la investigació en clau turística sobre els Espais de Memòria

Es pren com a punt de partida el recent episodi de l'Arxiu Centelles, que ha fet plantejar quin és l'estat actual dels arxius i entitats fotogràfiques de Catalunya, i quina gestió es fa dels seus fons, no només per a preservar el patrimoni fotogràfic català, sinó també per a difondre'l i fer-lo accessible als usuaris.

Câmaras climáticas para o envelhecimento acelerado: ação de microambientes sobre bens culturais

Environmental chambers were designed for the accelerated ageing of materials used in artistic artifacts to study the synergistic action of temperature, humidity, UV and visible radiation and gaseous pollutants. Two inox-steel/PTFE compartments are kept under controlled temperature and relative humidity, whose values are transmitted to a PC, which stores, plots in real time and continuously feedback heating and humidifying devices through logical signals. A borosilicate, or quartz, window allows the irradiation inside the chamber from an external source. A flow of purified air purges the chamber and conveys selected pollutants from an external source. Each independent compartment works under either stationary or cyclic conditions.

Particulate matter in the indoor environment of museums in the megacity of São Paulo

Atmospheric pollutants can have serious impacts on the preservation of São Paulo's tangible cultural heritage. The purpose of this paper is to report the results of a monitoring campaign focussed on particulate matter (PM) that was conducted in three of the most important museums of the São Paulo megacity (Brazil): the Museu de Arqueologia e Etnologia (MAE-USP), the Museu Paulista (MP-USP), and the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo (PE). These museums exhibit indoor PM and black carbon (BC) concentrations consistent with their urban locations and their specific methods for managing the indoor environment.

Web Archiving in Finland. Memorandum for the members of the CDNL

This report describes web archiving in the National Library of Finland. The National Library of Finland has been archiving Finnish web on a regular basis since 2006. Web archiving is an important part of the Library'ʹs endeavours to collect and preserve Finnish published cultural heritage. In 2010, the amount of harvested data was 200 million files, or 25 Terabytes. The report takes the reader through the relevant legislation; internal plans and policies; funding and their allocation; the practices of web archiving; arrangements for the use of the archive; and issues rising from data security, sensitive materials, &c.

Enterprise architecture – the foundation for a strategy

This artcle describes work done with enterprise architecture of the National Digital Library. The National Digital Library is an initiative of the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture. Its purpose is to promote the availability of the digital information resources of archives, libraries and museums, and to develope the long-term preservation of digital cultural heritage materials. Enterprise architectures are a tool for strategic management and planning. An enterprise architecture also functions as an aid at a more practical level. It shows, for example, what kind of changes and improvements may be made in one system without overlap or conflict with other systems.

Musikalisk lärandemiljö : planerade musikaktiviteter med småbarn i daghem

A musically stimulating nvironment is of great significance when considering the opportunities for development and learning that are offered to children in day nurseries. Moreover, the quality of musical activities also has great significance for the musical development of growing children. Young children are always striving to create meaning and understanding; they influence and are influenced by the context in which they are situated. The purpose of this study is to investigate the planned music activities in the musical learning environment of seven toddler’s groups in day nurseries, based on four different aspects: the texts of children’s songs, the melodies of children’s songs, the basic elements of music and the use of instrumentation. The data has been gathered by video observation of the planned music activities. The age of the children studied ranged from 11 months to 3 years and 11 months, and on average there were 13 children in each group. The study involved a total of just over 90 children and nine educators. The methodological approaches are hermeneutic as well as videographic, and they are applied to the analysis as required. The approaches are well suited to an understanding of the planned music activities where the individual’s communications and actions are studied. The results of the study show that educators impart a cultural heritage to the children in the form of old traditional songs, but they also act as intermediaries for newer children's songs. They focus on actively on the text content of the children’s songs in their interaction with the children, but do not address the meaning of the text. Furthermore, while the educators use music sessions for the children to develop, among other things, an understanding of language and social skills, they do not use the sessions to develop the children’s musical skills. The educators could, to a much greater extent than they now do, direct the children's attention to the basic elements of music, and conduct meta-cognitive dialogues with the children. They use a large repertoire of children's songs, which are, however, often too demanding for the children’s voices to cope with. In addition, the educators do not plan, in any significant way, activities for the toddlers in order to help them develop the accuracy of their vocal tones. With regard to the use of instruments, the educators focus, in their interaction with the children, is placed on both the usage of the instruments and knowledge about the instruments. Regarding the use of instruments the study shows that the children’s musical expression takes place in an environment that includes both melody and rhythm instruments. It is clear that children are actively interested in the constructed instrument environment, because for long periods of time they independently play and experiment with instruments.

Kolmiulotteisen kulttuuriperintökohteen digitointiprosessi

Dokumenttien, valokuvien, videon ja äänen digitoinnin rinnalle on syntynyt tarve digitoida kohteita kolmiulotteisesti. Kolmiulotteinen digitointi asettaa digitoinnille uusia haasteita, sillä kohteista on kerättävissä hyvin paljon dataa. Digitointia varten tarvitaan siis prosessi jossa määritellään mitä kohteesta tulee digitoida ja miten tämä tehdään, jotta työ pystytään tekemään järkevässä ajassa järkevin kustannuksin. Työssä tutkittiin kirjallisuustutkimuksen ja kolmen digitointikohteen kautta miten prosessi tulisi muodostaa. Lopputuloksena muotoutui prosessimalli, jossa vaiheittain toteutetaan erilaisten työryhmien kanssa digitointisuunnitelma, laitevalinnat sekä digitointityö. Prosessin avulla digitointihankkeen suunnittelu helpottuu ja kustannusten sekä projektin etenemisen esittely asiakkaalle on yksinkertaista.
