** Cribinses Scale of Film Utilization (tm)**

©1996

In the attempts of instituting a quantification of film utilization, we at
PHOTOVAULT have created a chart to assist us in evaluating the rates of archive expansion within the institution PHOTOVAULT.**

Pre-Vaultaic Stage (out on a shoot)

10 rolls = 1 Cribinsis
10 C's = 1 Nibinsies (100 rolls)
10 N's = 1 Wambulon (1000 rolls)
10 W's = 1 Toast (10,000 rolls)

Active Vaultaic Stage (images actually cataloged in PHOTOVAULT® )

10 images = 1 Bruski
10 B 's = 1 Hoseme(100 images)
10 H's = 1 Crispie (1000 images)
10 CR's = 1 Weefee (10,000 images)
10 W's = 1 Sick Puppy (100,000 images)
10 SP's = 1 Vault (1,000,000 images)

Meta-Vaultaic Stage (poor things thdid not make it into permanence)

1000 discarded images = 1 Roundfile (RF)
