About the book… Given recent global crises, the imperative to preserve and analyse online content has never been more vital to enhancing our comprehension of contemporary changes. This book, the outcome of the 5th international RESAW conference that convened experts from fifty disciplines across seventeen countries in Marseille in June 2023, tackles the multifaceted challenges of web archiving. It underscores the dual roles of web archiving, as cultural heritage and as essential source material for researchers delving into contemporary events and the evolution of digital culture. Through twenty chapters, it explores the development of web archiving and examines how technical, cultural, geopolitical, societal, and environmental shifts impact its conception, study, and dissemination.
Keywords: Web archiving, Contemporary changes, Cultural heritage, Digital culture, Geopolitical shifts
About the chapter Based on a collaborative effort between the research project BodyCapital and the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (BnF), we present a two-step archiving process and analysis of audiovisual web content related to food and health history, investigating how audiovisuals have contributed to shaping our eating habits. The first step involved a web crawl with Heritrix, targeting 158 identified seed URLs compiled based on BnF science & technology lists and URLs identified by the research group. The crawl harvested 1,067,159 URLs. A content analysis identified 1,718 videos in our corpus. Content mapping and the identification of links to YouTube videos were performed, leading to the second step involving a focused collection of 34 YouTube channels harvesting 24,427 videos (2.4 TB) to be analysed..
Keywords: audiovisuals, web archive videos, health, food history, YouTube.
