This has been really helpful as i'm currently taking part in a University project based on curating an archive!

[@filipsjogren9688]

I would love to take something like that. Do you have any online resources? My dream is curating a fashion archive.

What are Archives? | Animating the Archives 1009am 2.5.23 it is of interest. and does suggest you create yer own... your own archive. whether that be creating imagery with sub standard image creation equipment or making a concerted effort to indulge with the latest hi-tech range of image creation devices. it depends on yer stance. and if you do create an archive you will find that you're placed firmly in that lowly hovel deemed the objective camp - without even attempting to don the aura of the disinterested or aloof. archives are just masses of collated material of folk and industries and governmental bodies desiring to make the grade or have you make a concerted effort to take notice of them and document their social scene or their world view. think about what yer going to create? hmmmm...maybe not. maybe just create, in this instance image creation, a collectio of pictorial references without discernment. it's all valid as is the verbiage of your subject matter...

Loved the concept of an open archive, using a Map as a Device for collaboration. gonna check out the South London Black Music Archive

Amazing! I was in the archive without actually being there! I thoroughly enjoyed this tour!

The archives have a responsibility to check files in and out like in a library. They must at all times know where their documents are, especially high security.

I found some interesting pictures of Ukrainians from King David collection in your catalogue,, but seems that they are not digitalised and i must visit the reading room to at least see them… what would you suggest to do if i can’t visit England any time soon, and would love to use materials with reference to your Archive … thanks in advance

I plan on archiving a bunch of stuff surrounding video game culture and maybe one or two other things... not sure if I will ever get around to it but you know how it goes

A very useful resource spoilt yet again by pretentious out of focus shots and unnecessary camera movements across out of focus foregrounds
