It also assists current professionals in understanding the complex decision making processes that faces conservators on a daily basis. Covering a broad range of topics that are key to sound conservation in the museum, this volume is an important tool for students and professional alike in ensuring that best practice is followed in the preservation of important collections.
Archaeology and Heritage of the Human Movement into Space
This volume addresses the creation, documentation, preservation, and study of the archaeology of lunar, planetary, and interstellar exploration. It defines the attributes of common human technological expressions within national and, increasingly, private exploration efforts, and explore the archaeology of both fixed and mobile artifacts in the solar system and the wider galaxy. This book presents the research of the foremost scholars in the field of space archaeology and heritage, a recent discipline of the field of Space Archaeology and Heritage. It provides the emerging archaeological perspective on the history of the human exploration of space. Since humans have been creating a vast arch...
Toward a New Culture of the Material
Was wäre, wenn wir das multistabile, ambivalente und anpassungsfähige Verhalten aktiver Materie als offenen Gestaltungsspielraum verstehen? Die Beiträge dieses Bandes erkunden das formbildende Potenzial des Prozessua-len und Unverfügbaren - von mikrobi-ellem Co-Design über morphogeneti-sche Experimente und atmosphärische Kreationen bis hin zu Plastizität und Lebendigkeit in Architektur, Kunst und Begriffsentwicklung. Im Grenzgang zwischen analogen und digitalen For-men überschreiten die hier vorgestell-ten 19 Perspektiven disziplinäre und methodologische Grenzen und zielen darauf ab, ein neues Paradigma des Materiellen zwischen den Kulturen der Natur- und Geisteswissenschaften und des Designs zu begründen. Interdisziplinäre Beiträge zu aktiven Strukturen, adaptiven Materialien und Nachhaltigkeit Analoge Codes und Praktiken im Zeitalter des Digitalen Forschungsergebnisse des Exzellenzclusters "Matters of Activity.

Living systems on heterogeneous cellular substrate
La bio-détérioration des documents culturels compte parmi les types de détériorations les plus complexes que sont amenés à subir ces objets; et ce, parce qu'elle implique des organismes vivants ainsi que la conjonction de nombreux facteurs. Il existe différentes formes de biodétérioration; les taches de substrat (support?) engendrées par des champignons pigmentés en sont un exemple. Une multitude d'actions se développent aux “interfaces” entre le substrat (support?) et les champignons, depuis le premier contact avec les spores, en passant par la prolifération fongique, jusqu'aux interactions avec l'environnement. L'analyse multi-échelle et multisensorielle de l'interface en...
Biodeterioration of Cultural Heritage
Fungi-induced stains on paper are one of the most challenging forms of biodeterioration to study and to prevent; this is because they involve living organisms, and the ways in which fungi respond to changes in the environment and modifications of paper are unpredictable. Yet, there is a great desire among those who encounter fungi on documents, manuscripts, or artwork to remove fungi and clean the paper. This experience in most cases is particularly challenging. What are the reasons behind this challenge? This ground-breaking book attempts to answer this question, among others, by exploring the complex interfacial forces between paper, fungi, and their pigmented secretions which result in bi...
Bibliography of Preservation Literature, 1983-1996
Preservation encompasses both the prevention of damage and conservation -- the physical treatment of damaged objects. Deteriorating books, environmental control, building maintenance, housekeeping and storage, electronic systems, security, and disaster planning and recovery are some of the concerns faced by preservation managers. Consequently, collaboration between collection management, conservators, and scientists is essential to successfully safeguarding materials. The Bibliography of Preservation Literature, 1983-1996, highlights the organizations and other resources that will assist in all aspects of collection preservation; from protective wrappers to magnetic media to acquisition and organization. Professional organizations such as the American Library Association, the Society of American Archivists, the Guild Book Workers, and the Association of Moving Image Archivists are cited. While not shying away from controversial issues, the comprehensive volume addresses the pragmatic concerns of modern collection preservation. Provides access to the best strategies and advice available today in an organized, easily accessible format.
