More with R
|
||||
|
||||
I talked to R face to face to get access
|
||||
|
||||
13:51
|
||||
H: Ok arrived to do archive backup for the techys
|
||||
|
||||
R: Im not in till 3.45, after picking up Yasu. I've sorted out about 4000 items on a hard drive (had to take out the copyright ones belonging to eg professional photographers). There's a mixture of docs, photos and video
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
H: Ok will go do some video editing at Archola
|
||||
|
||||
R: See you later
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
H: The idea is that it's a HUGE random subject based database. Ie. Its attractive to geek desire for order. Pre-digested is a problem. Ps. It should take a few hours to copy a big data set.
|
||||
So sooner the better to get started
|
||||
|
||||
R: I'm not sure of the size but not more than 100gb Most of it is docs because the video is on people's own accounts
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
H: But the archive is supposed to have offline copys of all the content. You need as much redundancy as possible. Do you have a list of links to the other data stores I could download them at hackspace.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
R: That would take a while, and I haven't got time right now. I took time out to get you some data
|
||||
They're supposed to be offline copies not appear to some owner's surprise somewhere else
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
H: Ok this is not how it is supposed to work #4opens its supposed to be empowering people... if people can't get to the data how do they sort it? http://hamishcampbell.com/index.php/2018/11/05/omn/ is an example of a #4opens project.
|
||||
OMN Is the project, the exhibition was set up to feed…
|
||||
|
||||
R: Individual accounts have their metadata. It's decentralised. All we need the software to do is search the tags
|
||||
|
||||
H: This is not a data soup... this is not a trust based #4opens project. It's something out of the 20th century. Do you personally not want a #4opens project? If so I can refocus these tech meetups, but it's a waste of the remaining tech budget that I find deeply upsetting.
|
||||
|
||||
H: Am meeting the **** guy tomorrow.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
R: You have the entirety of the tech budget to do whatever you like with. I'm just helping out with a bunch of data to play with
|
||||
|
||||
H: Ok let leave it there am off home.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
R: Ok well I needed to sort out the stuff we're going to upload anyway.
|
||||
I am curious to see if post-op load sorting works. Many ways to skin a cat
|
||||
*post-upload it's going to be very useful to be able to add/edit metadata after upload, in the soup so to speak. I think the Resistance archive geeks will try to design that in.
|
||||
Just to clarify, we don't disagree about the desired end result. But it's still limited what we ourselves can upload of people's copyright material. Re-tagging or sorting stuff that comes in through RSS is not a problem. I will when I get time create a long list of source accounts. You could do that yourself as well though.
|
||||
|
||||
H: The exhibition and archiving was set up with the #4opens at its core. Open Licence and open data are 2 of the opens... have a think about this for a bit.
|
||||
Think about open process at the same time.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Ok. I will refocus the meetups.
