The James Beveridge Media Resource Centre invites you to an
introduction to pad.ma (short for Public Access Digital Media Archive)
by Shaina Anand & Ashok Sukumkaran on Tuesday, June 9, 2009 at 4 pm in
the JB MRC Room, 2nd Floor, AJK MCRC, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi
110025.
The Public Access Digital Media Archive is an online archive of
densely text-annotated video material, primarily footage and not
finished films. It is a collaborative project between five
organizations: oil21.org from Berlin, the Alternative Law Forum from
Bangalore, and three organisations from Mumbai: Majlis, Point of View
and Chitrakarkhana/CAMP. Launched as a website in February 2009, the
entire archive is searchable and viewable online, and is free to
download for non-commercial purposes. In the introduction, Shaina and
Ashok will show and discuss the many potential ways in which pad.ma
can be used.
