Book description
Today, huge quantities of digital audiovisual resources are already
available - everywhere and at any time - through Web portals, online
archives and libraries, and video blogs. One central question with
respect to this huge amount of audiovisual data is how they can be used
in specific (social, pedagogical, etc.) contexts and what are their
potential interest for target groups (communities, professionals,
students, researchers, etc.).
This book examines the question of the (creative) exploitation of
digital audiovisual archives from a theoretical, methodological,
technical and practical point of view, especially in three main
directions of work:
- The repurposing and republishing of existing audiovisual data.
- The building of community-centric audiovisual archives.
- The use of digital social media and Web 2 technology for the diffusion
and sharing of audiovisual content.
This book presents a series of concrete examples of creative uses of
digital audiovisual corpora for education, research and cultural
heritage preservation and valorization.
