關於我們 — 318公民運動文物紀錄典藏庫簡述

About the 318 Civil Movement Archive

緣起 Origin

野百合學運在台灣史上應該有一定的地位吧?
有誰知道野百合學運的那朵金屬製巨大百合花的命運嗎?
據說,大野百合被拖回學校,放置許久,終於不免被解體進入回收場。

318公民運動發生後幾天,根據參與的人數以及各方面的現象,我們判斷此一運動會對台灣社會有重大影響,更重要的是這次公民運動的參與者在立法院的議場與周邊創造了有趣的「藝術」作品,表達各種理念,於是興起了收集史料的念頭,並開始進行相關的聯絡工作。

在學運的最後幾天,得到中研院史語所、台史所和社會所所長的首肯,找到臨時的收藏空間與運輸工具,還得到臺大歷史、人類學系以及臺北藝術大學教授與學生的人力支援,終於在結束前幾天晚上,把許多相關「標本」運到中研院的暫時收藏地點,並且開始進行數位典藏工作。數位典藏的工作又得到了中研院資訊所、資創中心以及數位文化中心的各種支援,也邀請了「亞洲數位典藏」與「拾穗者文化」兩家新創的小公司,幫忙進行實體文物數位化以及原生與次生數位檔的典藏庫的建構。為了在318週年讓大家有一個驚喜,我們在此呈現供公眾使用的典藏目錄系統。我們還合作建立的一個小小的線上特展,這個特展希望延續318公民運動參與的基調,收錄許多對318公民運動的紀錄與回憶。日後將增加功能,讓大眾也可以線上參與這個特展。

Isn’t the Wild Lily Student Movement an event of importance in the history of Taiwan?
What happened to the giant metal replica of wild lily after the movement came to an end?
It is commonly believed that the giant replica was later transported back to the Chinese Culture University for storage, but was at last disassembled and sent to the recycling field.
Just a few days after the 318 Civil Movement took place, based on the number of participants and the influences it had exerted in various aspects, we came to a conclusion that this would become an event of great importance to the Taiwanese society. More importantly, many interesting “artworks” were created by the participants at the legislative chamber and its perimeter to express their thoughts and beliefs. We therefore began our effort in ensuring the preservation of these historical materials.
In the final days of the movement, preliminary approval was granted by the Institute of History and Philology, the Institute of Taiwan History and the Institute of Sociology (Academia Sinica) so that a temporary storage area was secured. With the support from the faculty members and students from the Department of History and the Department of Anthropology of National Taiwan University and those from Taipei National University of the Arts, many of the art creations were moved to Academia Sinica, where a digitization project ensued. The Institute of Information Science and the Research Center for Information Technology Innovation of Academia Sinica, as well as the Academia Sinica Digital Center, also provided supports to this project. Two young start-ups, Digital Memory, Asia and Word Gleaner, were also invited to take a part. In order to commemorate the anniversary of the movement, we officially and publicly launched this digital archive system on March 19, 2015. A participatory exposition website based on the archive was setup at the same time; everyone is invited to explore the archive.

影音檔案的徵集 Acquisition of Audiovisual Media

除了議場內的實體文物,眾人自發拍攝紀錄的各類影像、影音檔案,也是我們徵集的重點。這些原生數位的媒材,在事件之初始就持續傳播了運動當下的場景。這些檔案或存放於各類影音線上平台(而隨時有被下架的風險),或留存於紀錄者各自的實體硬碟或是網路空間(不多留意或日久消散)。數位化、網路化的公民運動所衍然而生的巨量數位影像紀錄,考驗著我們在史料蒐集可以觸及的深度及廣度。因著時間與經費的限制,我們未能無條件的蒐集這些數位檔案,目前只能著重於直播影音檔案的徵集。希冀藉由這些影像紀錄的保存與重現,讓眾人再度置身事件發生的空間中,也為當代以及後世的研究者,留下一些原生數位形式的史料。

目前我們已徵集了約 800 個小時的數位影音檔案,解析度約在480 x 352到1280 x 800之間,檔案數量與總時數也持續增加中,這些檔案包含了立法院內的直播影音檔,以及立法院周邊(濟南路、青島東路、中山南路,鎮江街及其他零散的地點)的集會演說錄影不等。這些直播檔案品質時有參差,乃是因現場網路不穩定或是設備出狀況,但這也忠實呈現了運動的本質與面貌。

Besides the materials collected from the Legislative Yuan Chamber, we also went out and acquired audio, video, and image files that were spontaneously made by the general public during the 318 movement. These “born digital” materials recorded what had happened since the first day of the movement. However, they were mostly stored at either online media platforms (where they were at the risk of being removed at any time), or personal hard drive or web storage (where they could be erased or forgotten as time goes by). As artifacts from civil movements are being digitized in this internet age, the huge amount of digitized records available also poses a challenge to those of us who are trying to preserve historical data. Due to time constraint and limited budget, we are unable to unconditionally collect all the audiovisual media files, but can only at now focus on the collection of video recordings that were made on-site. We hope that people may relive this event by viewing these videos, which may also be used by researchers as first-hand historical materials.

As of today, we have collected approximately 800 hours of audiovisual files, where the video resolution ranging from 480x352 to 1280x800. Our collection continues to grow, and it includes videos and photos taken from inside the chamber as well as those from the perimeters (Jinan Road, Qingdao E. Road, Zhongshan S. Road, Zhenjiang Street and other scattered locations). The quality of these videos again varies, due to the internet connection quality on-site when they were streamed live or the equipment at hand. However, we believe that this is also an honest portrayal of the movement itself.

檔案的使用 Use of the Archive

議場內的文物搬運到中研院之前,我們與代表性的運動者表達史料保存的目的,也獲得其同意與祝福。這些文物來自四方,創作者眾,時間緊迫下實無可能逐一考察,於徵求原作者意願後才進行保留。我們將其集中保存並進行數位化,固然有研究和文物典藏的目的,但也祈望藉此更加深化公眾記憶。目前這些文物已逐件進行高解析度數位化工作,並提供檔案縮圖在此網站供大眾瀏覽。現階段將啟動指認與授權的功能,供著作人能線上填寫授權聲明書,讓高解析度的數位檔案也得以釋出使用。至於原生數位的影音媒材,經由許多人的幫助,我們得以和原始檔案的產製者聯繫,得其同意後收錄與此。這些影音檔案的產製者,許多已同意將這些檔案貢獻 到「公眾領域」 (Public Domain) ,或是以「創用CC授權」(Creative Commons Licenses) 方式釋出,在其授權條款的容許範圍內,公眾得以自由使用這些被授權的內容。但礙於頻寬等相關資訊的限制,目前僅開放線上瀏覽,如欲取得高解析度影片,請來信告知。

我們強調,無論是實體文物的數位化檔案,還是原生數位的影音檔案,這些數位檔案的使用,需秉持文物保存以及公眾記憶的目的,而這也是我們進行這項工作的初衷。這些檔案的使用,需顧及原作者的著作人格權,以及其中人物的形象、隱私等權利。細節請見〈使用規範〉。

Before moving them to Academia Sinica, we have fully explained our intended purpose of preserving these historical materials to the leaders of the movement, and received their understanding and blessing. As these works were made by various authors and creators and we were under serious time constraint, we were unable to contact them on an individual basis to obtain their permission before the preservation work began. Collecting and digitizing these works certainly serves the purpose of preserving them for future research. But at the same time, it is hoped that by so doing we deepen our collective memory of this event. All these works are now being digitized, and transformed into a collection of high-resolution images. Currently, however, the archive website only features thumbnails, instead of their high-resolution images. New functions are being developed so that authors may identify their works online. After obtaining the permission for use from the authors, the high-resolution digital images will be made available to the general public.

As for the “born digital” materials we have acquired so far, we did contact the creators and obtained their permission to use these digital media. The creators either agreed to dedicate their works to the public domain, or to release them under the Creative Commons licenses, so that the general public can freely make use of these media files.

We wish to stress again that any use of the image files digitized from the original materials, as well as the born digital media files, should be in line with our intention in preserving these artifacts. They are for deepening our collective memory of the movement. Moral rights of the authors, as well as the privacy of individuals shown in these files, should be respected and honored. For details, please refer to the Terms of Use.
