August 2019 veranstaltet die Kustodie der TU Dresden gemeinsam mit der Koordinierungsstelle für wissenschaftliche Universitätssammlungen in Deutschland und der Gesellschaft für Universitätssammlungen (GfU) e.V. den vierten Workshop in der Reihe „Junges Forum für Sammlungs- und Objektforschung“. Eingeladen sind Doktorand*innen aller Disziplinen\, die an und über materielle/n Objekte/n oder Sammlungen forschen. \nIm Rahmen des geplanten Workshops sollen wissenschaftliche Fragen\, Methoden und Ergebnisse vorgestellt und mit Nachwuchswissenschaftlern*innen aus anderen Disziplinen sowie Expert*innen diskutiert werden. Darüber hinaus erwarten wir von den Teilnehmer*innen\, dass sie ihre Beiträge und die Ergebnisse der Diskussion für eine gemeinsame Publikation aufbereiten. \nDas Lesen und Deuten von Spuren ist alltägliche Orientierungs- und Überlebenstechnik und gleichermaßen epistemische Methode. Spurenlesen als Grundlage unseres Wissens über unsere Lebenswelt stützt sich dabei ebenso auf den geschulten Blick oder ‚embodied knowledge‘ wie auf objektivierbare natur- und kulturwissenschaftliche Methoden. Spurenträger kann das einzelne Objekt\, der einzelne Fund\, die Sammlung oder der Befundkontext sein. Manche Spurenträger werden ausschließlich für den Zweck der Erkundung im epistemischen Prozess hergestellt. Andere Spuren wiederum sind flüchtig\, sodass erst (Ab)Bild\, Abguss\, Tonaufnahme\, Moulage oder Modell als Spurenträger zweiter Ordnung eine (dauerhafte) Konservierung erlauben. Richtet sich der epistemische Fokus auf die Methoden des Spurenlesens\, können Sammlungen oder Befunddokumentationen aus den Kultur- oder Naturwissenschaften als Spurenträger der Evidenzerzeugung gelesen werden. Wissenschaftliche Geräte und Instrumente oder ganze Experimentalsysteme werden zu Quellen\, die Aufschluss über die Verfahren der Spurenproduktion geben. \nWir möchten einen interdisziplinären Austausch zu objektwissenschaftlichen Ansätzen befördern und fordern Nachwuchswissenschaftler*innen aller Disziplinen auf\, ihre aktuellen Forschungsvorhaben vorzustellen und in einem interdisziplinären Forum zu diskutieren. \nDas „Junge Forum für Sammlungs- und Objektforschung“ ist ein Kooperationsprojekt der Koordinierungsstelle für wissenschaftliche Universitätssammlungen mit vier Universitäten und wird von der VolkswagenStiftung finanziert. Die Workshopreihe bietet eine Plattform für jüngere Nachwuchswissenschaftler*innen\, um sich fächerübergreifend miteinander zu vernetzen und Fragen der objektbasierten Forschung insbesondere in wissenschaftlichen Sammlungen an Hochschulen zu reflektieren. Zentrales Anliegen ist es\, den wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs dazu anzuregen\, mit wissenschaftlichen Sammlungen und Objektbeständen an Hochschulen zu arbeiten\, Objektkompetenz zu erwerben und interdisziplinäre Projekte zu entwickeln. \nWir bitten um kurze Abstracts im Umfang von maximal einer Seite für eine 20-minütige Präsentation sowie einen knappen Lebenslauf mit Stichworten zu den Forschungsinteressen an die unten angegebene E-Mail-Adresse. \nStichtag der Einsendung ist der 31. März 2019. \nEinsendungen bitte an: kustodie@tu-dresden.de (Betreff: „Junges Forum“). \nDie Tagungsbeiträge werden von der Gesellschaft für Universitätssammlungen e.V. digital publiziert (https://edoc.hu-berlin.de/junges_forum); Reise- und Übernachtungskosten werden erstattet. \nFür weitere Informationen zur Kustodie der TU Dresden und den CfP als pdf finden Sie hier: https://tu-dresden.de/kustodie; für Informationen zur Koordinierungsstelle für wissenschaftliche Universitätssammlungen siehe http://wissenschaftliche-sammlungen.de. \nFür Rückfragen wenden Sie sich bitte an: joerg.zaun@tu-dresden.de URL:http://umac.icom.museum/calendar/junges-forum-fur-sammlungs-und-objektforschung-workshop-dresden-2019/ LOCATION:TU Dresden\, Dresden\, Germany CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190627 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190701 DTSTAMP:20181005T043646Z CREATED:20181005T043430Z LAST-MODIFIED:20181005T043646Z UID:3885-1561593600-1561939199@umac.icom.museum SUMMARY:AAMG Annual Conference 2019 DESCRIPTION: URL:http://umac.icom.museum/calendar/aamg-annual-conference/ LOCATION:Weisman Art Museum\, University of Minnesota\, Minneapolis\, MN\, United States CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190626 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190629 DTSTAMP:20190524T062514Z CREATED:20190524T061530Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190524T062514Z UID:4755-1561507200-1561766399@umac.icom.museum SUMMARY:International Seminar Heritage on Fire: Who's next? DESCRIPTION:Heritage on fire: Who’s next?\nFire risk management for cultural heritage\nInternational seminar | Rio de Janeiro\n26-28 June 2019\n \nFire is a major hazard affecting cultural heritage assets around the world. Although it may seem a ‘rare event’ from a single institution’s perspective\, large fires can become routine when considering the total heritage of a nation. Furthermore\, their impact is typically catastrophic\, causing total or almost total loss in the affected cultural property. Recent examples include the Glasgow School of Arts (United Kingdom\, 2014 and 2018)\, the Institute of Scientific Information on Social Sciences (Russian Federation\, 2015)\, Mzuzu University Library (Malawi\, 2015)\, India’s National Museum of Natural History (2016)\, New York’s Saint Sava Cathedral (United States of America\, 2016)\, Jakarta’s Maritime Museum (Indonesia\, 2018)\, and Brazil’s National Museum (2018). \n\nThe majority of fires affecting heritage institutions have internal causes\, and can be avoided or greatly reduced through proper maintenance and safety procedures. In order to prevent fire disasters\, emergency preparedness is essential but it must not be the only strategy. There is a clear need to promote more effective legislation and policies\, to stimulate the use of new fire safety technologies\, and help create a fire prevention culture in heritage organizations. \n\nThe seminar will address these pressing issues\, underlining the key role that decision makers must play in preventing disaster fires. Fire statistics and their implications for effective decision-making\, experiences from different countries and contexts in managing fire risks\, and state-of-the-art fire safety measures for application in cultural heritage will be discussed. Contributions will be sought from a diverse range of fields and disciplines\, including heritage managers and authorities\, cultural first-aiders\, conservators\, fire legislation specialists\, fire engineers\, fire chiefs\, heritage risk assessors\, and insurance experts. A visit to Brazil’s National Museum will be organized to provide a first-hand view of the ongoing actions to re-establish its prominent role as a heritage and research institution in the country and internationally. \n\nA specialist forum will take place at the end of the seminar to set forth meaningful recommendations concerning fire risk reduction in cultural heritage. This will provide a concrete output to support policy changes and ensure wide dissemination of results. \n\nTarget audience: heritage authorities\, heritage managers\, national fire protection agencies\, museum directors\, museum designers\, heritage management educators\, etc. \nProgram in ENGLISH and PORTUGUESE \n Registration \nContact: seminario@museus.gov.br \nSUPPORTED BY UMAC.

Throughout the complex ways of their provenance\, their changing uses and their connections to different protagonists they represent junctions of extended networks. \nThis year’s Conference\, organized by  Mainz University in cooperation with the  German Society for University Collections and addressed to curators of university and museum collections and scientists working with objects\, focusses on the networks of collections and the different perspectives on their objects. It will be discussed which potential follows from that for the cooperation with other disciplines\, with partners within and out of universities\, on regional\, national and international level. \nNote: the Conference language is German. \nSee Program. \nRead  more.
