Commentaires de présentation

Thank you for inviting me. I’ve never wanted to know french more than I do today!! My name is Jacob and I’m Head of Digital Media at the National Museum of Denmark. My work is primarily focused on digital strategy and digitisation. Currently we are working to redefine and modernize our museum into what we call “The Digital National Museum”.

OUTLINE Preamble // The switch from broadcast

CASE // #HACK4DK

Digital strategy // Look ahead, act now!

// Build a platform

The National Museum of Denmark Established 1807

550 employees | 1 million hours | 35 million Euro

The National Museum of Denmark Established 1807

MISSION The National Museum embody and develop the prerequisites for

everyone to be able to gain insight into cultural history

Présentateur


And all our efforts are guide by this statement: Our mission: to embody and develop the prerequisites for everyone to be able to gain insight into cultural heritage. It might seem a little clunky, but that’s my poor translation.

We’re not in the MONEY-business

We’re in the VALUE-business!

(RE)USE = VALUE

Experience economy | Education | Cultural plurality

Présentateur


It might be obvious to many of you, but I feel it’s important to note nontheless. We as museums are not put in the world to make money, we’re here to make a difference and affect people lives. We want to help people gain insight and perspective. For us, USE and reuse of cultural heritage stuff equals value.

Présentateur


“VIDEN” So we’re about KNOWLEDGE creation and sharing. And as you probably know, knowledge needs mediation to be valuable! Books are still one the most used media for transmitting knowledge…

In the fall 2012 Denmark had its first cultural heritage hackathon. Inspired by Europeana, who have held a series under the name #hack4europe – we called it #hack4dk

HACKATHON A hackathon is an event in which computer programmers and

others in the field of software development, like graphic designers,

interface designers and project managers collaborate intensively

on software projects.

”This hackathon is a good example that (…)

cultural institutions have embraced the digital

challenge.

In my view, culture has great potential to become a

much larger force in the Danish society, and free

access to culture data is a big step in the right

direction.“

- Uffe Elbæk, Minister of Culture

DIGITAL HERITAGE STRATEGY Principles, tactics, trends and perspectives

Présentateur


Ok, so finishing off I’d like to say a few words on our take on strategy, that might be an inspiration to you.

Getting back to my museum, this is where we’re at right now. The world is definately changing around us. New challenges, new practices and new tools are here. I admit, it’s a bit overdramatic, but I really like this image for it’s ability to illustrate and communicate a “sense of urgency”. And my point obviously is: We, The National Museum, are not where we want to be…

Further ‘Social Local Mobile Web 2.0’

Semantic Web, Singularity, “The future”

Early web =No linked data.

THE STRATEGIST ”I will predict the future, and use this to carefully plan

our work in the years to come!”
