[spectre] tate webcasting curator job available

[honor]

Hi Spectres,

As many of your know, I am soon going to be leaving my job as the 
Webcasting Curator at Tate.
I'll be leaving Tate on Bastille day, 14 July, and soon after that I'll 
also be leaving London.  Me and Adam Hyde are going to be focussing on our 
art project r a d i o q u a l i a <http://www.radioqualia.net> for a little 
while, and in particular a project called Radio Astronomy, which explores 
the sonic qualities of space.

The job of Webcasting Curator has been advertised, and I just wanted to 
post a note about the position here, in case any Spectres were interested, 
or know of anybody who would be interested, in applying.

Hope to see many of you soon.

Best wishes

Honor Harger




Tate Webcasting Curator  Job Available

Salary: c.£27,000 pa

Job Advertisement

Tate are seeking a new Webcasting Curator.
Since implementing its pilot webcasting programme in May 2000, Tate has 
broken much new ground in this field. We were the first visual arts museum 
to run a regular programme of live webcasts, and we remain one of the few 
to make on-site educational programmes available to an international 
audience this way. Hundreds of hours of video and audio material are 
accessible via our webcast archive. And because a sound educational 
philosophy underpins our work, every webcast is offered free.

Your challenge will be to build on what we've achieved over the last three 
years. To maintain our position as pioneers, you will lead on the 
programme's development in close collaboration with our Digital Programmes 
and Interpretation & Education teams. You will take personal responsibility 
for managing the live webcasts, providing technical expertise and directing 
freelance producers and camera-operators. You will also redevelop the 
archive <http://www.tate.org.uk/audiovideo/archive.htm>, making it more 
usable and accessible, and utilising it in e-learning projects.

It's essential that you have spent at least three to five years managing 
digital/online projects incorporating many partners and collaborators. You 
need hands-on experience of webcasting production and strong knowledge of 
the technical side. It's likely that you've already worked in the art and 
education field. You will certainly be aware of the issues surrounding 
online teaching and learning. You will also have a strong vision of 
webcasting's future at Tate.
