summary

Often you browse digital archives in the same way: by clicking buttons on a computerscreen. It doesn't matter wether the data you are looking at consists out of text, images, video, audio, etc. This way of searching trough the data often makes it less engaging and uninteresting. Also, you can't really tell what the size of an archive is: its physical form is small, just a harddisk, and hidden from sight. Its digital size is hard to relate to: with large lists you can't really keep track of the amount of 'items' in the archive.

I would like to take a digital collection and give it a physical presence, either through the use of physical data holders, such as punch cards, or through the use of a meaningful interface.

  • Giving digital archives a physical presence: creating physical data holders for the archive's contents.
  • Create a meaningful interface to browse the archive: one that is related to the subject, unlike the generic keyboard/mouse/screen setup.
