Reports from the Field
How to keep running Flash after 2020-12-31

To run Macromedia/Adobe Flash after it was discontinued on the 31^st of December 2020 is, of course, not only possible, but also strictly necessary in the field audio-visual archiving. To keep such creations alive is the goal.

When and where

Online on Friday the 19^th of March 2021, starting at 11 o’clock sharp here in Switzerland (that’s 10:00 UTC). We will use a Jitsi-based platform and the link will be provided in proper time.

As usual, the admission to our Reports from the Field is free, but a registration is required, as the seats are limited to a dozen or so, in order to allow in-depth technical discussion and information exchange. The attendees should be familiar with Flash.

Note

• We are very unhappy that our generosity is often betrayed, as many of our materials are distributed without naming their origin. Increasingly, others are even shamelessly claiming authorship of our work, which is just disgusting behaviour. And that’s the very reason why some resources are no longer freely available, but have been moved to password-protected parts of our website.
