Georg Vogt / Clemens Bauman / Florian Bauer / Stefan Nebel / Alexander Rind Narrating “living” archive as film. The RegioBioGraph Project The following text presents the RegioBioGraph project (https://research.fhstp.a c.at/projekte/regiobiograph), an attempt to structure and convey digital archive stocks as time based media. Financed by the Gesellschaft für Forschungsförde- rung NÖ, the project ran as a cooperation between the St. Poelten University of Applied Sciences and the University of Vienna from 2019 to 2024. Archive systems such as the Topotheque (http://www.topothek.at) are exem- plary of recent practices of decentralized, local collection and archiving activities led by citizen scientists. In their volume Community Archives, Bastian and Alexander 1 show further examples that illustrate the connections between community and archival practice. Archives can be understood primarily as practices of arrangement in interaction with formations of collective memory. Community remembrance is increasingly being understood as a pluralistic process. This also involves a paradigm shift within collection practices. Archives that are characterized by a hegemonic collection paradigm are increasingly being supplemented by archives that can integrate a variety of paradigms. This change can also be found in publications of the last decade under the term “archival multiverse”. 2 With that development, new constellations of actors come into view. Popple et al. describe this as a “participatory turn” 3 in archiving and show a spectrum of collaborative archival practices that arise from it. Archives that can integrate local experiences are facing new challenges. Using the Connected Communities project as an example, Kery Facer and Bryony Enright 4 formulated the central challenges in this regard. Their research clearly shows the requirements that bottom up processes demand from the project design, both in terms of the contextualization of material and the categorizations used for it. If these requirements are met, 1 Bastian / Alexander 2009. 2 Gilliland et al. 2017. 3 Popple et al. 2020. 4 Facer / Enright 2016.
