Applicability of the concept [edit]
The technological revival concept lies within the idea of a certain nostalgia of the multimedia contents of yesterday (radio, television, video games...) It expresses itself fully with the rising coming of Web 2.0. It can take various forms:
- To use the high-tech possibilities to make rebirth radiophonic or televisual programs of yesterday. The Internet high flow authorizes,now, this practice on a general basis. As a matter of fact, the vintage multimedias contents are relatively easy to digitize, so that they can, then, being downloaded (NB: respect of the royalties)
EX: Setting on line on Internet, some old television programs.
- To connect a technological system of yesterday with a system of today.
EX: To connect a video game console of the 1st generation (Standard Nintendo Nes 8 bytes) on a video projector, a plasma screen...
[edit]
VHS RIP: Televisual program set on line at the disposal of the Net surfers and whose native source of recording comes from the VHS standard (analogical)
Radio RIP: Radiophonic program set on line at the disposal of the Net surfers and whose native source of recording comes from a radio set.
Limits of application [edit]
The technological revival works rather well with multimedia contents dating from the 90s, 80s or 70s. Beyond that, it becomes difficult to combine revival technological and quality.
