DOCAM
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DOCAM (Documentation and Conservation of the Media Arts Heritage) was an international alliance of researchers from various institutions and disciplines dedicated to the documentation and conservation of media arts.[1] The project was the result of a five-year mandate lasting from 2005 until 2010.[2] Outcomes of the project include a cataloguing guide incorporating case studies, a conservation guide explaining preservation issues specific to time-based media, a technological timeline, a documentation model for digital curation and preservation of time-based media, and a glossary and thesaurus for media arts.[3]
