VIDEO ARTe-monitor 31 THE DANISH VIDEO ART DATA BANK
November 23, 2011
With the special February No. 30 [February 8, 2005] THE DANISH VIDEO ART DATA BANK stopped publishing the newsletter, but since things have changed within the last couple of months we publish once again a newsletter - No. 31.
Torben Søborg is happy to announce that University of Copenhagen / Institute of Art and Culture by action of professor Slavko Kacunko takes over The Data Bank, The Archives of Independent Danish Video Art and the research project „Immaterial Variable Media / Video Art Preservation‰. It will all become part of the Processual Arts Center of Excellence (PACE) at the University.
The Archive will become a part of PACE under the name Torben Søborg Independent Danish Video Art Archive and PACE will also get all printed, written and digitalised material concerning the Data Bank and the distribution of Danish video art through 20 years. The websites of the Data Bank will also in the long term be part of PACE
The analogue video works in the Archive will in the long term be digitalised and become part of the infrastructure. Torben Søborg has required that the material must not be used for commercial purposes and must only be used / screened with the specific information that it a part of the Data Bank / Archive and under the auspices of the Institute / PACE.
The Archive represent the first about 20 years of independent Danish video art. Torben Søborg is very happy that this cultural heritage at length is taken care of and hopefully preserved ˆ not at least thanks to the initiative and work by professor Slavko Kacunko.
