Michel Foucault, Michel de Certeau or Jacques Derrida), we can say that for its
(various) “user communities”, an archive deploys a universeofdiscourse* (more or
less easily identifiable, more or less homogeneous or heterogeneous, more or less
general, etc.) in which may be thematized and processed the frame(s) of reference
(see above) for the communities in question. Otherwise, if we wish to render explicit
the universe of discourse of an archive, we must adopt a certain point of view (i.e.
that of the analyst working in the name of “his” user community), explicitize it by
means of models of description* which represent the interest and expectations of
the analyst and implementing it in the form of interactive descriptive forms
belonging to an software tool for analyzing or describing the audiovisual resources
of an archive. This, in a few words, is the approach as it was defined and tested in
the context of the ASW-HSSproject* .
4) Technically speaking, an archive is typically composed of the following
elements: i) textual collection (written, visual, acoustic, audiovisual, etc); ii) digital
library (structure and management of the textual collection); iii) Web portal
(publication space) equipped with interfaces for accessing the collection and various
contributions including, in particular, the publications and services of use.
Audiovisualcollection
1) The term “audiovisual collection” denotes the entire set of audiovisual data
which are available in an audiovisual archive and which (at least in part) “feed” the
functionally distinct types of audiovisual corpora* that we may encounter in the
working process of audiovisual production-publication.
B
Buildingblocksofmodels
1) This term denotes the set of conceptual configurations (of conceptual terms),
generic and/or (partially) referenced, which make up the modelsofdescription* .
2) The main classes of model building blocks are: i) the schemas of definition of
the object of analysis*; ii) the schemas de definition of the procedures of analysis*;
iii) the schemas of indexing* stricto sensu , defining an activity of analysis*; the
referential schemas (not dealt with in this topic); the sequences of description*.
