    The Digital Performance Archive (DPA) was an outcome of an Arts and Humanities Research Board (AHRB) funded research project between Nottingham Trent and Salford Universities to undertake a major collection and analysis of digital performance events and developments that occurred during the 1990s. The project was called “DRIP-DROP”, standing for ‘Digital Resources In Performance – Digital Resources On Performance’, and it documented developments in the creative use of computer technologies in performance - from live theatre and dance productions that incorporated digital media, to cyberspace interactive dramas and web-casts.
    The “Drip-Drop” project produced an extensive online searchable database of virtual theatre performance and related events from 1990 to 2000, including selected video documentation, images and statements by creators.

    The archive offers a complete database and on-line video streaming of all 450 films made by the film department of Arts Council England between 1953 and 1998 and several films produced before 2003 by the dance Department of ACE. The films are available in digital form as the result of a three-year project by the University of Westminster and access is free of charge to UK further and higher education institutions. The collection provides a unique record of British and international post-war art, as well as of documentary film-making in the UK. Many titles in the collection contain rare material about individual artists, while others offer definitive coverage of their subject. Artists featured include Bacon, Spencer, Hockney, Moore and the Young British Artist (YBA) group. Some of the best filmmakers in the UK, including Anthony Minghella and Isaac Julien, were commissioned to make films for the collection. As well as focusing on individual artists, architects, writers and poets, the films document particular art movements that have continued to influence contemporary British Art, such as Surrealism, Dadaism, Futurism and Kinetic art.
