Report on the Status and Need for Technical Standards in the care of Time-Based Media and Digital Art
Funded by the Independent Research and Development Seed Grant Fund 2013
Based on formal interviews with Thought Leaders in the field of time-based and digital media art preservation, the report will focus on the potential need for technical standards for the preservation of time-based media art as opposed to those developed with archival collections in mind, and the relationship of that perceived need to best current and future practices in the preservation of time-based media art. Participants interviewed were asked Guided Questions developed by the Working Group. Transcripts will be posted here upon the completion of the project. Participants are listed with their titles at the time of the interview.
