On 8 + 9 June 2011, the Filmarchiv Austria is hosting a conference entitled “Key/Frames – The Filmic Document in the Digital Age“ in Vienna. On the occasion of the upcoming launch of the EFG portal, the conference is going to examine the possibilities, contexts and perspectives of digitisation. The first day will close with a cinema session called “Digiwave“, presenting short films from the collections of Filmarchiv Austria that will be made available via the European Film Gateway and Europeana. Although the majority of the presentations will be in German, the second day will feature an international panel with speakers from the National Library Norway, the EYE Film Institute Netherlands and Europeana.
The conference programme in German is available here.
