The Netherlands Institute for Sound & Vision (Dutch: Nederlands Instituut voor Beeld & Geluid, or short, Beeld & Geluid) is the cultural archive and a museum located in Hilversum. The Institute for Sound & Vision collects, looks after, and provides access to over 70% of the Dutch audio-visual heritage. In total, the collection of more than 750,000 hours of [television, radio, music and film that began in 1898 and continues to grow daily,[1] makes Sound & Vision one of the largest audiovisual [archive]s in Europe. It was founded in 1997 as the Netherlands Audiovisual Archive (Dutch: Nederlands Audiovisueel Archief (NAA)), and adopted its current name in 2002. Its history, however, goes back to 1919, with the foundation of the Nederlandsch Centraal Filmarchief, being one of its precursors.[2]
Sound & Vision is the business archive of the national broadcasting corporations, a cultural heritage institute (providing access to students and the general public) and also a museum for its visitors. The digital television production workflow and massive digitization efforts break grounds for new services.
Sound & Vision is an experienced partner in European-funded research projects. These include or have included: P2P-Fusion, MultiMatch, PrestoSpace, VIDI-Video, LiWA Living Web Archives (Research Project), Communia, Video Active (European Research Project) [citation needed] and the streaming mobile app Radio Garden, which gives listeners access to radio stations worldwide, perhaps their best known research project.[3]
In 2019, the Museum voor Communicatie, established in The Hague in 1929, merged with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. The museum has been renamed as Beeld en Geluid Den Haag.
On 1 January 2022, Muziekweb merged into the Netherlands Institute for Sound & Vision. Muziekweb was previously affiliated with the Central Library of Rotterdam.[4][5] It has been described as "Europe's largest music collection"[6]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
