Past Present[ation] and future

With the combination of my last two posts and the usage of Emaze I created a presentation outlining the strategy plan to fulfil in order to reach the end goal of the data curation.

The end goal with the curation of this data is to keep the same excitement and enthusiasm expressed by the client in the discovery of this amazing information http://corklgbtarchive.com (Orla Egan)

The origin of this project is from the initial boxes discovered with Arthur Leahy. We want to keep this image, origin and heart. This is desired in instilling the same sense of excitement and exploration in curating the data into virtual boxes that separate to audio, video,text and images. Yet linked to the relevant data. This imagery can be seen at the end of the slide.

The next step in the process in under taking this task to manageable chunks to be slotted into the SCRUM plan and put into motion.

SCRUM-ptious

As mentioned in my last blog post SCRUM is a management method that stems from ‘agile’. Evernote notes

SCRUM is lightweight and perfect for clarity when a team work together in order to reach a common goal. It is flexible in the sense that is so fast paced that can easily be re adapted around the clients needs. In the case of the cork LGBT archives this method works very well as new content may be discovered as any point. http://corklgbtarchive.com

Here is an image of the SCRUM plan

This can be broken down to To do, doing and done. In assigning each person a colour per sticky note this allows each member to be able to clearly see the progression of the project. The transparency here keeps the flow of the project in manageable chunks with the relief at the end of saying ‘done’ to reduce pressure and increase productivity.
