Dynamisch Archief (DNA)
private archive for Artists & Designers
DNA was founded in 2019 to fill the gap in the Dutch theatre collection. A 'Bottom-up catalogue and archive system for the artist, designer and Performing Arts companies. Data entry by the Source (the Maker) saves time, money and avoids copyright procedures: Linked Open Data under the direction of the Source itself.
DynamischArchief.nl is the repository for storing the creative works entered by the individual artist or designer, along with metadata and related documentation about their creations. The database open platform enables private artists and designers to maintain their archives and results in an organic growing Canon of Scenopgraphy starting in 1922.
PRIVATE REPOSITORY
The core of the DNA system is the repository for storing the creative works entered by the individual artist or designer, along with metadata and documentation about their creations. The SaaS structure provides the software ready to archive private data in the DNA digital vault.
The DNA Platform was founded in 2019 with the aim of professionalizing the archiving and dissemination of design, digital culture and the crossover between these disciplines. The platform facilitates collaboration, discussion and data exchange within self-appointed project groups.
Reason to establish the 'bottom up' structured archive was the gap of several decades in the Dutch theater collection as a result of government retrenchments and the liquidation of the Dutch Theater Institute in 2013.
The DNA platform enables curated publications of the catalogued objects, hosted in the digital DNA vault and published through the public interface Scenography.World with the explicit permission of the Maker:
