This technology is also changing the way in which we analyse and document current and historical moving image practices, as there has been a recent proliferation of digital archive and database projects relating to film, video and television practices. The Future Histories of the Moving Image Research Network has been set up to examine the changing ways in which we are circulating and interrogating all areas of our moving image culture and to address the issues of sustainability and historiography arising from the growing number of moving image arts database and digitised collection projects in the UK. The project is led by Julia Knight (University of Sunderland) in collaboration with the British Artists' Film and Video Study Collection (University of the Arts London) and REWIND: Artists' Video in the 1970s & 1980s (Dundee University).
