The Granularchive is a proposal to use as a tool during the presentation & radio broadcast of Zine Camp 2023, part of the Radio Worm: Protocols for an Active Archive Special Issue. Currently, the Granularchive can be visited via ChopChop.
The Granularachive previews all contents of an archive, by making use of exiftool (which is already installed on ChopChop). The content is displayed by translating a JSON file into the interactive SVG graph using D3.js. D3.js is an open-source javascript library.
Updating the Granularachive
- Upload new contents to the Granularchive folder on ChopChop via
/var/www/html/archive_non-tree
→ name to be updated - Within this folder, run
exiftool -json -r . > exiftool.json
, which will generate exiftool.json - Make sure this exiftool.json is placed at the root of `/var/www/archive_non-tree', and overwrite the existing one. Now the tool is updated!
An extra step will be needed to also include all of the wordhole content into the granularchive
Example of exiftool.json
The data displayed below can be used to change the way the Granularchive is presented.
