Abstract
18th Century Miniature painting from the collections of Antoine Polier and JeanBaptiste Gentil
Miniature painting executed at the provincial court of Awadh in the late 18th century has been stigmatized as inferior, ornately colored imitations of Mughal originals, meant primarily for European consumption. The Polier collection (at the Museum für Islamisches Kunst, Berlin) and the Gentil collection (at the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris), both...Roy, Malini

The Philately of the Edwardian era as shown in its literature
As this Paper is being given in 2006 no one can be alive who has any meaningful experience of philately in the reign of His Majesty King Edward VII. To discover virtually anything at all the researcher must examine the literature and the archives of the period. As far as...Beech, David R.

Sylvia Pankhurst's Germinal: work and play, organisation and the organic
Sylvia Pankhurst's little-known magazine Germinal (1923-24) emerged as her socialist newspaper The Workers Dreadnought was on the verge of collapse. It is self-consciously and necessarily more of a literary production than the Dreadnought but this paper suggests that concepts of internationalism and work (and so play) are shared by both....Price, Richard

Collective intelligence or intelligent collecting: alternative survival strategies for audiovisual archives in the Information Age
Despite the evident prescriptive statement in the sub-title to this presentation, this sketch of the way things appear to me to be is intended to generate collaborative inquiry within IASA and its institutional members rather than present strategic actions that can be applied on return from this Conference.Clark, Chris

This paper has three sources or “causes”, two of them “prior”, the third “final”. These are: firstly, the translation by the present writer of a fairly large group of poems and texts by the poet Velimir Khlebnikov (b1885, d1922), intended as a contribution to an anthology of English language translations...Chadwick, Brian

How to look after your Collection - A basic guide
Many philatelists understand that they are the guardians of the material in their collections for themselves and for future owners. It is unfortunate when some collectors show a disregard for looking after their collection and dismiss comment with a remark like “it will be OK in my life time”. It...Beech, David R.

The Time of Place: Louis-Sebastien Mercier and the hours of the day
I was recently reading The White Cities, Joseph Roth’s reports from France, 1925–1939, when, amongst many other moments, I was struck by the following passage: The manufacturers have their villas on the other side of the Rhône. That’s where the workers live – not in villas, alas, but in tenements....Shaw, Matthew J.

The sound of artists' books
Artists’ books – any books – are capable of sound, whether dropped, as in Keith Godard’s otherwise text-less and image-less Sounds (1972), or, fluttering noisily, drying out, in the chill spring wind, on the monastery roof in Sergo Paradjanov’s film, The Colour of Pomegranates (1969).Bury, Stephen

The William Dyce and Edward Machell Cox collections of art sale catalogues in the British Library
In the flyer for this talk I called sale catalogues ‘unassuming’ and ‘half-hidden’. ‘Unassuming’ because they often are simple lists of works, ‘half-hidden’ because, in the British Library at least, they are not always catalogued separately and therefore are easy to miss. They are, however, extremely important for the study...Michaelides, Chris

Data and Inequality
Data is a powerful tool that could help reduce inequality, enabling us to better understand and quantify key global issues. But machines are inheriting the same biases that exist in the offline world and faulty algorithms, when applied at scale, risk making things less fair than ever.
