Dear SIGCIS, I wanted to share a publication from late last year, from the team I lead that may be of interest to some of you. While the case studies are media artworks, we wrote it with the hope it might be useful to those thinking about born digital content needing emulation, more generally. The Archiving Australian Media Arts (AAMA) project have published 'Collecting, Curating, Preserving and Researching Media Arts: A good practice report'. In this report, we detail what we did to address the challenges posed by preserving and providing access to born-digital cultural artefacts, how we went about the work of locating media artworks from the 1990s, recovering content from obsolete media carriers, and testing Emulation-as-a-Service (EaaS). We consider the potential of emulation for curation, exhibition, and research with examples from case studies. The result of research funded by the Australian Research Council and undertaken in partnership with AARNet, Swinburne University, RMIT University, ACMI, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Griffith University Art Museum, State Library of South Australia, ANAT and Experimenta, this 'good practice report' offers insights for academics, practitioners and industry leaders, whist also foreshadowing the benefits of the shared digital infrastructure we are currently building across Australia that will ensure sustainable access to cultural collections.
