Thank you very much mehr rede.
I just one to to let you know, even if
we have a very kind of museological perspective today,
of course, our conference is about all glam institutions and
we will see this tomorrow in the other keynotes and many,
many workshop that we will have at the University of Hamburg,
but pleased excuse me if I will share
our museum perspective of
course with you
Ja. Tiersinato Kroster, dir Partners, dir Partissipens,
dir Guests. Very happy and also very proud,
that you all came to our first international sharing is caring extension.
And yes, there is the question, while do be actually need and extensions.
Why is it important to have a national extension and Ja,
make the concept of openness and sharing familiar also too more people that,
may have never have heard of it before.
I can say, for us, it was actually elogical development.
And it was fueld by the openness of many people.
It's juggled all long before, we talked about extending the
format of the sharing is caring conferences to German,
especially to Hamburg.
It's daughtered already in may
2014, at the Annual Assembly of the European Museum Forum in Tally.
Where I met Jill Cousins, the executive director of Europiana,
who will we journing us tomorrow?
And she was also one of the speakers,
there are a pre-conference we had there and talked about the example of the hex-Museum.
And I was very impressed and ask course some
question about it. And she heavally shared something with me
. The contact of blizzy younger at the rex-Museum.
And There are wants in Summer 2014 and important moment,
I needed to capture this, that we as,
wie sie in Hamburg head the chance to talk about these
in point issues with leaders in the field at the likes museum.
And lizy and her call leagues,
there happy and openly shared to knowledge and experiences with me.
And in coveraged us to open up our collection.
And so did you merite with them basically with your book
that you as you has from mentioned it have all in your backs.
And your research, you did in this field.
And yes, it had a big influence on our development.
But what does it actually mean opening out a collection?
Full us it men, that we responded to respect the public domain,
that all images take with public domain in our online collections
Can be used and downloaded and with out any restriction
for whatever you want as bereta has explained.
On of the principles of this is not should
put new rights on works that are already out of corporate.
Suited digitization. But it also means to make explicit rights
statements and statements about what you can do or you can
not do, who it the digital representation of the artworks
This is why we also choose that CCC Zero public
domain dedication to wave right that could possibly okay,
when you did details and outwork.
And it is also important to let the users now,
what they are not allowed.
And what they can not you, because of course,
we publish works that are still on the copyright.
I can't sure you the image, because I
don't have the permission of the artists to do so.
It's accessible be a our collection online,
because he a lot us
to show there
Ja. Also, to distributed further,
but not especially for this talk. Opening up,
means also to provide the information about your objects in various formance,
like this XML data, that is Machine Readeral.
But that is do a lot to do there
are lot of challenges
We don't know, if we are clean enough.
For otherns, to rehouse our inages.
This is an example of a partner project of the museum
of kunst und Gewerbe in Hamburg. And we actually thought,
okay, our right statements is clear,
but it's maybe not as clear as users needed to be
so there are still work to do
And also when publishing data and images in national or international data basis like
the deutsche digitale Bibliothek or Europäaner, it is challenging.
I mean, have a look at this.
Is this clear to you at the first side?
I don't think so. And there's also a huge pressure
for us, because it is we all need to get
our collection digitized
Katalog. And as fast as possible, because our funding partners,
no ministry of clusure, of course,
want to see the efforts of this invest named.
But there is more than just numbers. There is also
the mission of museums to educate and to be the
trust at source in a world of fake nues.
There's there are responsiblity to surf other communities with respect.
We will chalk about this tomorrow as one
There are are ideals and visuals of real people,
who want to get connected with our culture heritage.
And our concernshould be how to make this haven in the best possible way.
What is useful for a researcher is different from what is
important to young people? Gengage more people,
we have to open up several access points,
we are social media,
Wikipedia or whereever our audiences
This means to create created content, but first of all,
we have to make should that there is stuff,
we can a complish.
This work, this is a journey, and the journey is called digital transformation.
And it doesn't end where and object on intire collection is digitized.
Digital has to become part of everything in the museum.
Not only a project. And this involves also that we
have to make sure that all our curleakes are on the
same page that they understand all why we are doing this
why we are opening up our collections that it does also
useful for them to see new collaboration projects evolved
too see new connections between objects of
different collections to get not research perspectives.
So we have to trained
them and discussed the challenges together
A little less, then year go, at the conference court my targo.
I give it presentation about our project and our policy.
And I remember that we had a great discussion.
And I also remember very will that one of our colleagues,
he's also here, Christian Gries,
that he a stated on Twitter,
later, or during this talk.
This was no talk, this is revolution.
And I was kind of, yeah,
I like it, but I didn't really no why,
he's had this
It became over yours to me,
that the no licensing publish no licensing practice,
that we have feel at the museum für Kunst und Gewerbe,
is challenging for other institutions.
And this even do, while the best practice of public
domain material is recommended by the European commission and Europäaner,
it is part of the diditalization guidelines of
the deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft
And stated as a condition for funding
from the German federal minustry of education and research.
Obviously organizations that stand for innovation and high quality.
Research, but for revolution. And I thought, okay,
what you was so logically out of our founding charter of
the museum for kunst in Gewerbe, might be a paraditing shift.
Sharing authority, about what can be done with our digitalist,
critural heritage, seems to be threatening to cultural intuduce Detution,
to an extent, you might a further it,
that some of them even fire lawshings.
Let's face it. This is the range of discussion.
What is best practice for some institution, is revolutionary,
austrattening for this. And this is, why we needed
a conference like sharing is caring in Germany and especially in Hamburg,
where we are at the forefront of this discussion.
Two explain and explored why sharing and openness are recommended
by our minustries
And why it can be benificial for every culture ahearted and memory institution?
Therefor we also developed the concept of the sharing is caring,
same in a further, to our needs.
Besides internationally recordnized keynote speakers, we focused on workshop that ame to give practical guidance.
And ex in college to exchange about topics.
And not only between one museum and the other,
but especially, Interdisziplinary between archives, museums, libraries.
Artists. Users, researches. I hope I didn't forget
and one but sorry. What we will discuss today and
tomorrow are topics like copyright and licensing,
economization of cultural heotage, how to open up your institution,
step by step.
How to contribute you hackersons and learn more about data literatucy
How to do is so sex full a crowdsourcing projects?
How to share authority? And how to deal was sensible Objects?
How to use open content in arch education and digital projects.
And you will discuss partizipation to you social sharing.
But the most important thing, for me is that
we encourage sharing openly our familiens and frustrations.
Not only our
briters moments
Because we all sure the same challenges in libraries archives museums all over the world.
And there is always someone who can learn from us,
like relearn from or the others,
likes museum and statements museum to the side only two examples.
But is it really all over the world?
When we plan this conference and open the registration,
I was elittle with very it about the people
who will attent the conference, is a really topic that
is interesting. And Then there was an E-Mail,
that believed me and it's said, key a ora antil.
