“Digital preservation is a perfect field because it unites two things I\u2019m passionate about: humanities and IT.\u00a0 I can work on a framework to keep the data for future generations.\u00a0 It\u2019s always been important to do that whether the data is analogue or not.\u00a0 Data presents evidence, evidence that\u2019s subject to story telling and interpretation.\u00a0 It opens up unlimited possibilities.\u00a0 If you want to understand how a community ticked at a certain time, literature gives you a representation of the time, of what moved people.\u00a0 Data that we create today can do the same thing.<\/p>\n

Data can be literature, poetry, art or factual experimentation.\u00a0 It\u2019s not just an output of research; it\u2019s an output of creativity and of our life today.\u00a0 Sometimes we forget that. \u00a0<\/span>
\u00a0<\/span>
But we should spend more time talking about what works and what doesn\u2019t work.\u00a0 We need to not always invent new models, but apply a model and see what happens – to use models and tools to curate and treat our data, and then it\u2019s very important to look at these tools critically.\u00a0 And to improve them. There\u2019s a lot of great output that has come out of projects but does anyone use it?\u00a0 There\u2019s a gap in implementation.\u00a0 And funding\u2019s becoming scarcer, so we need to find more effective ways to make tools sustainable and useable for the user communities.\u00a0 It\u2019s frustrating.”<\/span><\/p>\n
