Now that now that digitalization is commonplace and born-digital materials are mainstream this thematic wants to focus on theories and practices of e-publishing in various forms. The central focus of the thematic is: what is a hybrid publishing platform and how can it be used?
__TOC__


Focusing on the results from the documentation classes of the previous three years, in which first MMDC years students developed documentation projects that portraited or responded to the graduation works from the second year's students. Using these as materials for the creation of a collaborative e-pub will answer these questions. The documentation material consists of texts (articles and interviews), photos, animations, video, paper publications, and websites. Next to the practical implications we will discuss how research and publishing in the arts have changed over the past decade. '''We will explore new tools for gathering knowledge, examine platforms for multimedia publishing or collaborative writing experiments, focus on the interplay between pixels and print, and discuss open and closed spheres of knowledge'''. As an outcome we'll challenge students to conceive and implement an electronic publication for the works developed under the context of the documentation project.


In the meantime this will inform their thinking about the meaning and value of documentation and the way it is used by different kinds of institutes, organisations and individuals that produce, collect and manage cultural material.

Digitisation is commonplace and born-digital materials such as moving images are mainstream. One of perks of electronic media is that they allow for rich media, yet the now common format for electronic books - ePub - is in many senses a poor medium, focused manly on text, whose visual manifestation vary widely from reading device to reading device, a scenario reminiscent with the early days of the World Wide Web. Whist there are many experiments and research that challenge digital publishing, few of these are being adopted by the industry. Does this mean we are still in a transitional phase? If so, how to benefit from this unstructured field? Or, are we merely up against technical developments, standardisation and platform challenges?

Introduction / comments by Martino Morandi (t.b.c.)
Making it Public – the thematic project from the Master of Media Design & Communication – consisted on a three-day experiment to incorporate all forms of documentation – from video to websites and paper flipbooks – onto an ePub. Next to a glimpse of the challenges and potential found in this process, two guests will present their views on the tricks and treats of e-publishing. Pia Pol (Valiz) will talk about what hybrid publishing means for a traditional publisher and how it can be used. Florian Cramer (Reader, Creating 010, Hogeschool Rotterdam) will focus on the need for means of off-line digital reading.

Making It Public - publication workshop

Synopsis

Now that digitalisation is commonplace and born-digital materials are mainstream this thematic wants to focus on theories and practices of e-publishing in various forms. The central focus of the thematic is: what is a hybrid publishing platform and how can it be used?

Focusing on the results from the documentation classes of the previous three years, in which first MMDC years students developed documentation projects that portraited or responded to the graduation works from the second year's students. Using these as materials for the creation of a collaborative e-pub will answer these questions. The documentation material consists of texts (articles and interviews), photos, animations, video, paper publications, and websites. Next to the practical implications we will discuss how research and publishing in the arts have changed over the past decade. We will explore new tools for gathering knowledge, examine platforms for multimedia publishing or collaborative writing experiments, focus on the interplay between pixels and print, and discuss open and closed spheres of knowledge. As an outcome we'll challenge students to conceive and implement an electronic publication for the works developed under the context of the documentation project.

In the meantime this will inform thinking about the meaning and value of documentation and the way it is used by different kinds of institutes, organisations and individuals that produce, collect and manage cultural material.

Public Text

Digitisation is commonplace and born-digital materials such as moving images are mainstream. One of perks of electronic media is that they allow for rich media, yet the now common format for electronic books - ePub - is in many senses a poor medium, focused manly on text, whose visual manifestation vary widely from reading device to reading device, a scenario reminiscent with the early days of the World Wide Web. Whist there are many experiments and research that challenge digital publishing, few of these are being adopted by the industry. Does this mean we are still in a transitional phase? If so, how to benefit from this unstructured field? Or, are we merely up against technical developments, standardisation and platform challenges?


Making it Public – the thematic project from the Master of Media Design & Communication – consisted on a three-day experiment to incorporate all forms of documentation – from video to websites and paper flipbooks – onto an ePub. Next to a glimpse of the challenges and potential found in this process, two guests will present their views on the tricks and treats of e-publishing. Pia Pol (Valiz) will talk about what hybrid publishing means for a traditional publisher and how it can be used. Florian Cramer (Reader, Creating 010, Hogeschool Rotterdam) will focus on the need for means of off-line digital reading.
