The project studies the history of technologies in television, focussing on their everyday use in production activities.</div><div><br></div><div>ADAPT examines what technologies were adopted and why; how they worked; and how people worked with them. As well as publishing written accounts, the project carries out 'simulations' that reunite retired equipment with the people who used to use it.</div><div><br></div><div>Participants in these simulations explain how each machine worked and how different machines worked together as an 'array'; how they adapted the machines; and how they worked together as teams within the overall production process.</div><div><br></div><div>www.adaptTVhistory.org.uk</div><div>https://doi.org/10.17637/rh.c.3925603.v1</div><div><br></div> 2018-03-27 09:55:45 16mm aaton acmade arriflex BBC documentary eclair eclair npr eclair super 16mm flatbed editor lighting moviola picsync steenbeck television film Screen and Media Culture Media Studies Film, Television and Digital Media not elsewhere classified History and Philosophy of Engineering and Technology
