Moving Beyond Access: University Institutional Repositories, Copyright And Digital Preservation, Harrison W. Inefuku, Elizabeth M. Shaffer

Harrison W. Inefuku

This presentation communicates the findings of a two-­‐year research project, University Institutional Repositories: Copyright and Long-­‐Term Preservation, that investigates the challenges presented to UIRs by the digital preservation of a multitude of content types, which may include preprints, postprints, electronic theses and dissertations, multimedia presentations, datasets and administrative records, all of which have differing requirements for digital preservation (the specific process of maintaining digital materials during and across different generations of technology over time, irrespective of where they reside).

General Study 11—Policy And Procedures Templates: Final Report, Harrison W. Inefuku, Alexandra Allen

Discover the requirements for developing preservation plans for university institutional repositories. This poster discusses the development of policies, procedures, guidelines, activity models and metadata requirements to ensure the preservation of digital objects stored in university institutional repositories and to comply with national and international intellectual property legislation.

Permission To Preserve?: University Institutional Repositories, Copyright And Digital Preservation, Harrison W. Inefuku, Elizabeth Shaffer

Harrison W. Inefuku

University Institutional Repositories (UIRs) have been developed to provide access to and preserve the scholarly output of their host institutions. To date, much research has been conducted that explores the benefits of UIRs in terms of scholarly communication and open access. However, there is a paucity of research that investigates requirements for digital preservation, as well as the implications of intellectual property legislation on requirements for preservation and accessibility. This poster communicates the findings of a two-year research project that investigates the challenges presented by the digital preservation of a multitude of content types, which may include preprints, postprints, electronic …

Crosswalk Of Functional And Activity Models: Interpares, Oais, Paim, Tufts/Yale, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

In order to determine necessary activities in the pre-ingest, ingest, preservation and access phases of electronic records preservation, the activities in the InterPARES 2 Chain of Preservation (CoP) Model, Open Archival Information System (OAIS) and Producer-Archive Interface Methodology (PAIM) were mapped to determine necessary activities for a Fedora-based electronic records preservation system for the National Library of Medicine, Archives and Modern Manuscripts Program (AMMP). As a published model for the management of electronic records in a Fedora repository, the system model from the Tufts/Yale Fedora and the Preservation of University Records Project (Tufts/Yale) was then mapped to first three models, …

Final Report: Functions And Activities For Acquiring, Preserving And Making Accessible Electronic Records, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

Under the direction of Paul Theerman and John Rees, an internship was completed at the National Library of Medicine’s Archives and Modern Manuscripts Program (AMMP) in Summer 2010. The internship consisted of research into the acquisition, preservation and access of electronic records. The deliverable identified in the project description is a report that identifies some existing best-of-breed projects/programs and outlines best practices and tools for acquiring/pre-ingest care of born-digital materials, minimal sets of preservation activities, and access mechanisms within the paradigm of our nascent Fedora repository infrastructure.

Documenting Digital Art In Small Galleries: The Approach Of The Interpares Project, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

This presentation discusses research being conducted at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery as part of the InterPARES 3 Project, which is developing a documentation framework to support the preservation of digital and new media art. The framework includes the use of a questionnaire for artists; a checklist of records that should be created and/or acquired by the Gallery; a file structure that allows the Gallery to maintain its documents and records according to records and archival management best practices; and an analysis of copyright and moral rights issues.

For the results of this study, see Case Study 03—Morris …

Case Study 03—Morris And Helen Belkin Art Gallery: Case Study Report, Harrison W. Inefuku, Cindy Mclellan

Harrison W. Inefuku

The case study examines the issues involved with preserving contemporary art, specifically art that relies on digital technology for its presentation. The Gallery is interested in finding means of ensuring works will survive in perpetuity and as they were originally intended to be displayed or in a manner that respects the intention of the artists who created the works.

Who’S Your Mammy?: Figuring Aunt Jemima, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

In existence for over a century, the advertising icon Aunt Jemima remains a point of contention for many African Americans, despite a recent makeover that attempted to remove visual signifiers of slavery. To understand the icon's negativity, I explore its roots in slavery,the minstrel stage and The Exhibition of the Other. I then move to an analysis of "The Legend of Aunt Jemima," a series of advertisements produced in the 1920s, to determine how racism was manifested in the icon*s promotional materials.

Who's Your Mammy?: Figuring And Refiguring Aunt Jemima, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

In existence since the late 1890s, advertising icon Aunt Jemima has been indelibly etched into the American memory—virtually unchanged from her debut until her makeover in 1989. Before this recent transformation, Aunt Jemima was the quintessential embodiment of the mammy stereotype—a heavyset black woman, complete with apron and bandana. Her creation was situated at the locus of several racist traditions and discourses directed towards African Americans—the mammy stereotype, the minstrel show, The Myth of the Old South, and the Exhibition of the Other. This embodiment of multiple racist practices helps to explain how the mammy in general, and Aunt Jemima …

Pollution And Hybridity: Cultural Collision In Masami Teraoka's Mcdonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan (1974–5), Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

Japanese-born artist Masami Teraoka immigrated to the United States in the 1960s, in the midst of a burgeoning post-war mass consumer society. During a visit to Vancouver, the artist was struck by the Golden Arches of McDonald's looming over the city and was prompted to create his series, McDonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan (1974-5), which shows the impact of the American multinational corporation on a post-World War II Japan. Completed in watercolor to resemble ukiyo-e woodblock prints, Teraoka shows the permeability of the boundaries between East and West. In my analysis of the series, I build on concepts of pollution and …

Pollution In Inner And Outer Spaces: Masami Teraoka's Mcdonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan, 1974–5, Harrison W. Inefuku

Harrison W. Inefuku

Japanese-born artist Masami Teraoka arrived in the United States in the 1960s, in the midst of a burgeoning post-war mass consumer society. During a visit to Vancouver, the artist was struck by the Golden Arches of McDonald's looming over the city as a portent of a global takeover by the company. This awareness prompted his series, McDonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan (1974-5), which depicts an old, traditional Japanese culture coming into contact with a new, modern American one with results that are at times humorous, and at others, chaotic. Completed in watercolor to resemble ukiyo-e woodblock prints, Teraoka masterfully fuses Eastern …
