In this episode of The Backup Wrap-Up, we look at the cloud vs tape debate for active archives. The conversation was sparked by a LinkedIn post claiming tape libraries are the only robots not making things easier in 2025, suggesting cloud is superior to tape for active archives.We challenge this premise by pointing out that cloud vs tape is a false dichotomy since many cloud storage vendors use tape for their lowest-cost tiers. We examine key considerations including cost (where tape wins by orders of magnitude), data integrity (where tape actually outperforms disk), and access times (where expectations should align with use cases). For organizations running on-premises infrastructure, we also highlight the often-overlooked egress costs and transfer times associated with cloud storage. Whether you're managing secondary storage or planning an archive strategy, this candid discussion cuts through the marketing hype.Here's the LinkedIn post that sparked the discussion:https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7300167312144322561/Here's a recent episode about how tape is not dead:https://www.backupwrapup.com/is-tape-backup-dead-why-it-still-matters/

In this episode, I take you to Singapore, where I attended the Singapore International Photo Festival with the Myanmar Photo Archive. During my time there, I met Roy Ng, a curator at the National Gallery Singapore. Our conversation quickly turned into a deep dive into the evolving cultural landscape of Singapore—how the city-state is positioning itself as a regional cultural hub, the complexities of representation, and the role of institutions in shaping artistic narratives. Roy shares his insights on decolonization, the challenges of curating national identity, and the global structures of art history. Join me as we explore these themes and more in a fascinating discussion about art, institutions, and cultural memory.National Gallery Myanmar Photo ArchiveThe Buddhist ArchiveRumah Abu: Death and the Photographic Medium in Straits Chinese Ancestral HallsFollow us on Instagram:@Vernacular Social Club@Lukas BirkBecome a Vernacular Social Club member

Harmony Healthcare IT, described by CEO Tom Liddell as an "enterprise data management solution," has expanded over time from archiving health care data and decommissioning systems to management secondary uses, and especially AI, which "allows us to think in different ways." At the CHIME Fall Forum conference, Liddell talks in this video of the "life cycle of data" and how it is often important to have quick access to data that is stored deep in an archive, even if the data isn't being used day to day. Every healthcare organization has hundreds of IT systems storing health data, and having a thoughtful approach to archiving legacy applications is important. Key to this decision is the quality of the data being archived, the costs saved by sunsetting legacy applications, and the security of the data archiving solution. Finding the right partner that can do all of these is essential. Harmony Healthcare IT consolidates data stored in many different places and robustly removes the unneeded old storage and applications. By centralizing control over data, the service improves security, reduces costs, and helps organizations maximize their use and therefore the value of their data. This is "data management for life."

Clare and Matt speak to historian, author and fellow podcaster Yves Rees, author of the new book ‘Travelling to Tomorrow The modern women who sparked Australia's romance with America' (UNSW Press).
Recorded December 5th, 2024. A hybrid seminar by Dr Lorraine Grimes (Maynooth University) as part of the Medical and Health Humanities Seminar Series. Bio: Lorraine Grimes is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Social Studies at Maynooth University. Lorraine has a PhD from the National University of Ireland Galway. Her thesis is forthcoming in the form of a monograph with Bloomsbury Academic in 2025 titled ‘Single mothers in Ireland and Britain: Pregnancy, migration and institutionalisation'. Lorraine previously worked with the Digital Repository of Ireland on the Archiving Reproductive Health project which is the subject of this talk. Abstract: Archiving Reproductive Health (ARH) is a Wellcome-funded project coordinated by the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI), working to preserve digital material created by grassroots organisations working for reproductive justice in Ireland, especially during the 2018 referendum to repeal the Eighth Amendment of the Irish constitution. The project was the first in the world to archive Facebook social media posts. A key part of the project was the archiving of stories posted on a Facebook page called “In Her Shoes”, where people anonymously shared their experiences of being refused abortion care, having to travel or illegally order pills online, and the emotional impact of these experiences. These stories often contained details of traumatic experiences such as sexual assault, obstetric violence and domestic abuse. This talk will introduce the Archiving Reproductive Health Project and archiving sensitive social media material. We will talk about anonymization procedures, coding/cataloguing and developing a self-care protocol and an ethics protocol for the project. Learn more at www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub
Hello everyone, with a heavy heart, I'm announcing the end of the podcast series. Over the years, it started as a side project to assist people and share insights I've gathered while continuing in my professional journey. Originally launched in 2008, the show has subtly made its impact without any formal marketing, driven purely by passion for helping others enhance their personal growth. Through various episodes, I hope listeners have found valuable insights, supporting their psychological and personal development. While dealing with personal hurdles, I chose not to focus on a victim mindset, refraining from pursuing any secondary gains from sympathy, which I hope resonates with many of you. As I focus on new pursuits, remember to be discerning in what you read and listen to, recognizing potential underlying agendas. While I have two books available on Amazon – "Personal Upgrade" and "Attract Love, Repel Hate" – they're meant to encourage a quick, cognitive process drive towards personal improvement. Thank you all for the support, and remember, if you wish to reach out, you can contact me at michaelpulser@gmail.com. Farewell and best of luck in your ongoing personal development journeys!

In this episode, we are joined by Alia Levar Wegner, a digital collections librarian at Miami University in Ohio, Brenda Foster, an archivist at the Columbus College of Art and Design, Nick Pavlick, a manuscripts and digital initiatives archivist at the Center for Archival Collections at BGSU, and Jannet Rhodes, supervisor of digitization services with the Toledo Lucas County Public Library. Listen as they share their experience making a short educational film, Learning to Listen: Rethinking the Approach to Community Archiving, focused on community informed digitization practices that avoid an extractive approach. With this project, they invite us to listen to communities and to respect their views. As they explain, the team strives to rethink mainstream academic archival practices that do not take communities' needs and values into consideration. This project was supported by an Innovative Librarians Explore, Apply, and Discover (ILEAD) grant.

Steve Swart was on the bandstand and in college at CMU just in time to see owner Harvey Vanier turn The Foolery into Rubbles. Mt. Pleasant has always been at the dead center of the state of Michigan when it comes to cross-over touring due to WCMU and the college music market. One quick look north from Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, Detroit and Lansing, all eyes hit the college town. The blended artistry from roots folk, to deep blues, power pop, metal, and first generation punk all huddled in this marketplace, long after the '60s Flint scene dispersed. Yes, you could see Texas blues man Gatemouth Brown, followed by funky rockin' Fishbone, and then a tour stop for the punk legends Dead Milkmen. Or how about Blues Brother Matt 'Guitar' Murphy? Verve Pipe? Etc...this was a Michigan hub town thanks to the venues, Theatres, and WCMU radio. While Swart notes that much remains in historical value, the word-of-mouth of the area's scene is more of a recollection and myth, than the hub it once was. North of Mt. Pleasant lies Interlochen, which seems to have taken on the persona that Mt. Pleasant used to be known for. A quick look at Traverse City, Petoskey, Alpena, or over west to Big Rapids or Grand Rapids, or even east to the Tri-Cities and you can see speckles of the majestic college town scene. Swart is taking the Mt. Pleasant music history seriously and is not only documenting it, but releasing lost shows on YouTube. Steve has compiled a fantastic episode that not only covers his music, but some of his rock/metal expeditions (magnetite)--which is not rock/metal like you think ;) Tune in and check this out too!

On the night of Summer Solstice 1986, Larry Harvey and Jerry James built and burned an eight-foot wooden figure on San Francisco's Baker Beach surrounded by a handful of friends. Burning Man was born.This summer, the 39th annual Burning Man gathering begins to assemble on a vast dry lake bed in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, the nomadic ritual's home since 1990. An estimated 80,000 people will come.During production of our Keepers series, chronicling activist archivists, rogue librarians and keepers of the culture and free flow of information, we received this message on the Keepers Hotline:"Hello Kitchen Sisters, I am a rogue archivist, the archivist for Burning Man. Come to Burning Man headquarters and I'll show you the collection. Cheers.” —LadyBee, Archivist & Art Collection Manager, Burning ManHow do you archive an event when one of it's driving principles is "leave no trace," where The Burning Man is in fact burned? What is being kept and who is keeping it? We journey into the archives of this legendary gathering to find out.Produced by The Kitchen Sisters with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell, mixed by Jim McKee.
Archiving VCR or any other RCA media After my Father passed away, I volunteered to archive his Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) collection to disk for the family. You might be aware that Europe used Phase Alternating Line (PAL) is a colour encoding system for analog television. It was one of three major analogue colour television standards, the others being NTSC and SECAM. Ireland used PAL-I, a version based on CCIR System I, which meant that none of the VCR players in the Netherlands would work. So in addition to having to carry 113 Video Cassettes on a RyanAir Flight, I also needed to bring the Video Player as well. Hardware RSA Connector to your media device RSA2HDMI card. HDMI to USB Capture Card. These are the ones I used but I don't recommend them one way or the other. The parts are fairly generic so use what you can get. Connection First drop to a console and list the connected usb devices $ lsusb | sort | tee before.txt Connect the VCR with RSA Cables to the AV2HDMI converter. Connect the AV2HDMI converter with a HDMI cable to the HDMI2USB converter. Connect the HDMI2USB converter to a Linux PC with a usb cable. After waiting a few seconds, you can list the usb devices again and do a diff to see which has been added. $ lsusb | sort | tee after.txt $ diff before.txt after.txt 11a12 > Bus 003 Device 021: ID 534d:2109 MacroSilicon USB Video While we know the USB device ID, we now need to know if/how the hardware is mapped into Linux. We need a way to be able to identify which /dev/video? device I need to capture from. First unplug the HDMI2USB capture card, and get a list of the video devices. $ for i in /sys/class/video4linux/video*/device/uevent ;do echo "${i} ===";cat "${i}";done | tee before.txt Plug back in the card and give it a few seconds to be recognised. Then run the same command and diff the output to see the differences. $ for i in /sys/class/video4linux/video*/device/uevent ;do echo "${i} ===";cat "${i}";done | tee after.txt $ diff before.txt after.txt 28a29,42 > /sys/class/video4linux/video4/device/uevent === > DEVTYPE=usb_interface > DRIVER=uvcvideo > PRODUCT=534d/2109/2100 > TYPE=239/2/1 > INTERFACE=14/1/0 > MODALIAS=usb:v534Dp2109d2100dcEFdsc02dp01ic0Eisc01ip00in00 > /sys/class/video4linux/video5/device/uevent === > DEVTYPE=usb_interface > DRIVER=uvcvideo > PRODUCT=534d/2109/2100 > TYPE=239/2/1 > INTERFACE=14/1/0 > MODALIAS=usb:v534Dp2109d2100dcEFdsc02dp01ic0Eisc01ip00in00 In my case I'm interested in the PRODUCT=534d/2109/2100. From which we can find the changing path, which in this case is /sys/class/video4linux/video5/ Similarly we also need to know which ALSA Audio Device it exposed. Again unplug the HDMI2USB capture card, and get a list of the audio devices. $ arecord -l | tee before.txt Plug back in the card and give it a few seconds to be recognised. Then run the same command and diff the output to see the differences. $ arecord -l | tee after.txt $ diff before.txt after.txt 7a8,10 > card 2: MS2109 [MS2109], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] > Subdevices: 1/1 > Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 In my case it reports as MS2109 from which we can find the changing card 2 Software Due to the limitations of this brand of video capture we need to force capture to use mjpg format at 30 frames per second. I first used vlc to test the capture Select Open Media > Capture Devices Select Video Device Name to the video device you found above. So as an example /dev/video4 Also set the "Audio device name" to the alsa card, eg hw: 2,0: Once audio and video were working, I switched to using ffmpeg as I'm more comfortable scripting with it. Bash script This is very much a "me" script, so edit it to your hardware and requirements. #!/bin/bash Copyright Ken Fallon 2024 (c) "No Rights Reserved" Released to the Public Domain via Creative Commons 0 https://creativecommons.org/public-domain/cc0/ video_device="$( grep -l 'PRODUCT=534d/2109/2100' /sys/class/video4linux/video*/device/uevent | head -1 | awk -F '/' '{print $5}' )" video_device_path="/dev/${video_device}" if [ -z "${video_device}" ] then echo "ERROR: Cannot find the HDMP2USB stick video stream" 1>&2 exit 1 else echo "INFO: Found the HDMP2USB stick video on "${video_device_path}"" 1>&2 fi audio_device_id="$( arecord -l | grep 'MS2109' | awk -F 'card |:' '{print $2}' )" if [ -z "${audio_device_id}" ] then echo "ERROR: Cannot find the HDMP2USB stick audio stream" 1>&2 exit 1 else echo "INFO: Found the HDMP2USB stick audio on "${audio_device_id}"" 1>&2 fi ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 30 -video_size 720x480 -input_format mjpeg -thread_queue_size 512 -i "${video_device_path}" -f alsa -i hw:"${audio_device_id}" -c:v copy -c:a flac output-flac.mkv The break down of the ffmpeg options are as follows, for more information see man ffmpeg or view online man pages. SYNOPSIS ffmpeg [global_options] {[input_file_options] -i input_file} ... {[output_file_options] output_file} ... -f fmt (input/output) Force input or output file format. The format is normally auto detected for input files and guessed from the file extension for output files, so this option is not needed in most cases. -framerate Set the grabbing frame rate. Default is "ntsc", corresponding to a frame rate of "30000/1001". -video_size Set the video frame size. -input_format Set the preferred pixel format (for raw video) or a codec name. This option allows one to select the input format, when several are available. -thread_queue_size size (input) This option sets the maximum number of queued packets when reading from the file or device. With low latency / high rate live streams, packets may be discarded if they are not read in a timely manner; raising this value can avoid it. -i filename (input) input file name -f fmt (input/output) Force input or output file format. The format is normally auto detected for input files and guessed from the file extension for output files, so this option is not needed in most cases. -c[:stream_specifier] codec (input/output,per-stream) -codec[:stream_specifier] codec (input/output,per-stream) Select an encoder (when used before an output file) or a decoder (when used before an input file) for one or more streams. codec is the name of a decoder/encoder or a special value "copy" (output only) to indicate that the stream is not to be re-encoded. For example ffmpeg -i INPUT -map 0 -c:v libx264 -c:a copy OUTPUT encodes all video streams with libx264 and copies all audio streams. For each stream, the last matching "c" option is applied, so ffmpeg -i INPUT -map 0 -c copy -c:v:1 libx264 -c:a:137 libvorbis OUTPUT will copy all the streams except the second video, which will be encoded with libx264, and the 138th audio, which will be encoded with libvorbis. We used the v4l2 for the Video4Linux format. A frame rate of 30, and input format of mjpg which are limitations of the card. Given the source PAL-I has 625 lines, a video_size of 720x480 is reasonable. After ffmpeg complained, I added thread_queue_size of 512 to help out. Then the rest is specifying the input for the video, and setting the audio to flac. I just want to dump the incoming stream to a file so that it can be processed later. Recording for vcr in {0..113}; do ;-) The intention was to put in a tape in the morning before going to work. Swap it for another when I got home, and yet another when I went to bed. As there was no mechanism to know when the recording was done, I first checked the length of the tape by Fast Forwarding it to the end. I used the timeout command to run a command with a time limit This would prevent already massive files filling the disk with hours of static. timeout --preserve-status --kill-after=5m --verbose 210m record-720x480.bash Problems While it worked fine for some, there was an intermittent problem that would cause the laptop to freeze. It would eventually recover after a few days, but I lost a lot of time and couldn't trust the process. I checked the memory and hard disk, even writing to usb and a nas. With each hour of recording coming in at 6.6G, some tapes lead to 60G files. I suspect that my luks encrypted disk was struggled with the huge files that were been produced. So keeping it simple I called out my HP t610 Flexible Thin Client with 2nd hand 1T hard disk, and set it up with a clean install of Debian. This fixed the issue and allowed me to get consistent recordings, all be it in a not so handy format. Post processing I wanted to be able to scrubb forward and back, to see if there was anything recorded on the tapes. Unfortunately the mkv flac/mjpeg format doesn't allow scrubbing, so the recorded media first needed to be transcoded to a format that did allow scrubbing, but also reduced the file size dramatically. By specifying the filename as next this command converted the media to mp4. ffmpeg -i ${next} ${next%.*}.mp4 This reduces the size by about 50%. Once converted this allowed me to use LosslessCut The Swiss Army Knife of Lossless Video/Audio Editing, to quickly preview and cut out the sections I needed without having to reprocess everything. flatpak run no.mifi.losslesscut Links The following are the links I gathered while compiling this project.

The transition from one presidential administration to the next is generally thought to start around Election Day and end with the inauguration. But for the Internet Archive, it's already underway. The nonprofit leads a coalition of libraries and universities that works to preserve the government's digital history and to protect it from partisan tampering during administration changes. On POLITICO Tech, host Steven Overly discusses what it takes to archive a president with the Internet Archive's Mark Graham.

“Stories of archives are always stories of phantoms, of the death or disappearance or erasure of something, the preservation of what remains, and its possible reappearance—feared by some, desired by others,” writes Thomas Keenan. Archiving the Commons: Looking Through the Lens of bak.ma (DPR Barcelona, June 2024) is about those stories and much more. Özge Çelikaslan uses bak.ma, a digital media archive born out of the social movements in Turkey, to guide us through a journey in which archives become sites of other kinds of stories—some of solidarity, activism, and the commons. Çelikaslan uses the concept of archives of the commons reimagining archives as dynamic spaces of commoning in which creative, autonomous platforms are generated collectively to perpetuate knowledge and sociopolitical relations grounded in solidarity and an ethics of care, not in some distant future but in the here and now. Özge Çelikaslan is a scholar and practitioner whose research interests encompass media historiography, critical audiovisual archival studies, and research-based film/video practices.

Iowa folk music icon Greg Brown is living that retired life. After playing his farewell retirement concert in 2023, he's returned with a new book: Ring Around The Moon: A Songbook, which highlights a song selection personally picked by the songwriter himself, as well as family photos, personal anecdotes and self-penned drawings. The book features a foreword by Seth Avett (The Avett Brothers) who calls Brown's songs "plain spoken expression of the nearly inexpressible." In our conversation, we touch on topics like inner peace, happiness, personal growth and self-acceptance.He speaks of how art has impacted him in ways the artist will never understand. He talks about what it's like to be on both the receiving and sending end of this exchange. It especially impacted him when he learned the poet Allen Ginsberg listened to an album of his while he was dying. I asked him about his music archives, which he calls "a bunch of old notebooks on a shelf" and "a couple boxes of old photos," which assisted him in recalling family connections for the songbook. Going through the photos and old songs instilled a sense of music nostalgia, including collaboration with Iowa musicians at the Wednesday Night Jam at The Mill. Music nostalgia surfaces several times through the pages like his incredible story of founding the successful and beloved Red House Records. There's also discussion on a few choice Greg Brown songs like "If You Don't Get it at Home," addressing replacing love for materialism and drug use. We talk about "Brand New '64 Dodge," chronicling Brown's personal experience with JFK's assassination in 1963 and "Two Little Feet," written in Alaska where he was inspired by Native American myths he heard and felt in the area. Greg Brown's songbook was an awesome trip down memory lane for some of the best folk songs ever written from one very serious, yet very silly songwriter. It was an honor to dig in with one of the best to do it!Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?
