Gawain Weaver was not only our President for over a decade but a photograph conservator in private practice, co-author of the AIC Guide to Digital Photography and Conservation Documentation, and President of Two Cat Digital. He discussed the preservation of digital photographs with an emphasis on the needs of the art conservator. Digital images, whether born-digital camera files or images from flatbed scanners are inherently fragile and require vigilance to maintain over time. Digital preservation, hardcopy output options, RAID drives, and cloud backups.
After the meeting the guild was welcomed to tour the Museum at their leisure. www.historysmc.org
