Creative use of digital archives

The Archives Hub (http://www.archiveshub.ac.uk/index.html) provides an access point to descriptions of UK university and college archives.

They also run a Digital Artist in Residence scheme. For the month of June their artist is Aileen Collis. She is manipulating digital images and creating digital collages of items from archive collections. Her Collection of the Month images show how archives can be used to inspire new works.
