Save Archive #SaveSafe • @1MEMO_20261024 • Michel van der Burg • Miracles•Media • Save Our Safe — The greatest challenge for the future is keeping our growing digital archives accessible. It is costly and time-consuming, but essential: storage formats change rapidly, and obsolete files cannot simply be opened.

Meanwhile, large sums are being invested in AI to produce ever more digital knowledge, yet it draws only on the heritage that is already available in digital form. It is five to twelve: the analogue archives and digital knowledge are in danger of growing apart. What exists only on paper is no longer being made accessible. I see this in science, where much of the paper library is not available digitally and is, in effect, being lost: consulting purely analogue sources cannot compete with the rapid digital knowledge-gathering for the new generation of researchers.

In this way, our history risks being abandoned through short-sightedness and replaced by an impoverished summary of whatever knowledge happens to be digitally available today. Text reworked and translated with the help of Claude.

NL — Save de Safe (bewaar en red de kluis) — De grootste uitdaging voor de toekomst is het toegankelijk houden van onze groeiende digitale archieven. Dat is kostbaar en tijdrovend, maar onmisbaar: opslagformaten veranderen snel en verouderde bestanden zijn niet zonder meer te openen.

Intussen gaat er veel geld naar AI, dat méér digitale kennis produceert, maar daarbij put uit het erfgoed dat al digitaal beschikbaar is. Het is vijf voor twaalf: de analoge archieven en de digitale kennis dreigen van elkaar te vervreemden. Wat alleen op papier is vastgelegd, wordt niet meer ontsloten. Ik zie dat in de wetenschap, waar een groot deel van de papieren bibliotheek niet digitaal beschikbaar is en daardoor in feite verloren gaat: het raadplegen van uitsluitend analoge bronnen kan niet op tegen de snelle digitale kennisvergaring voor de nieuwe onderzoeker.

Zo dreigt onze geschiedenis uit kortzichtigheid te worden opgegeven en vervangen door een verschraalde samenvatting van de kennis die nu toevallig digitaal beschikbaar is. Tekst herwerkt en vertaald met behulp van AI Claude.

Miracles project

For the Miracles project, I have so far—spanning from 2009 to the present—recorded video from approximately 150 ‘events’ and stored them in an equal number of ‘video libraries’.

Video Archive

The aim of the Miracles Dailies series is to create a single video for each of these libraries—compiling all the raw clips from every ‘take’—to establish a more accessible archive. This makes it easier to review the material and, if desired, share it for use in other productions.

Miracles Dailies #1

Today , with Miracles Dailies #1, the design and format have now been finalized, based on that video library I recently used to create the short film ‘Swing’ (1).

Editorial Proxy with Burn-In Timecode (BITC)

A ‘proxy’ video (a smaller copy) has been created from the high-quality Miracles Dailies #1 archive footage; this version features burned-in information, including a frame counter. Pictured above is a still from that proxy version of Miracles Dailies #1: frame number 9595.
