Tamara Osicka

Tamara Osicka is an archivist and curator who has worked with the collections at the National Film and Sound Archive for over twenty years, with a particular focus on the recorded sound and documents and artefacts collections.

In her current role as Curatorial Operations Assistant Manager, she is responsible for data quality in the NFSA’s catalogue and training and supporting the accessioning team.

She is interested in issues relating to the description and care of Indigenous collections. She is excited by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and how they can assist us to understand our collections.

The implications of the use of artificial intelligence in collecting organisations presents both an opportunity and a challenge in the years ahead.
