Program areas at Flickr Foundation
Flickr commons: we continue to reach out to our Flickr commons institutional members and grow community; we have built a new commons explorer website, and created specifications for Flickr api extensions which allow us to build tools to serve that community.
Content mobility: in 2023, we have worked on a new strategy, data lifeboat, to explore viable ways to preserve the vast Flickr picture collection. We have received grants from the national endowment for the humanities and mellon Foundation to build software and policy prototypes to develop our understanding of requirements.
New curators: we enlisted a research fellow in this program to develop a workshop for community archiving using Flickr as a medium.
Creative archives: we enlisted a research fellow in this program to develop thinking around generated imagery and how the Flickr dataset has transformed into infrastructure.
