@ReginaHarsanyi Cheers for that! I have always found it a very interesting topic so was curious

@astisherring I was making fun of something that was trending on Twitter among artists and arts workers. The trend hit a peak three evenings ago.

QT the jobs you've had except tell me what your parents do/did for work and the connections that got you each gig.

Today is UNESCO’s World Day for Audiovisual Heritage. I was part of a fascinating discussion with @lcurham01 @astisherring @lucasihlein for a @SISCSU radio episode on our various A/V archiving projects. Listen: 2mce.org/podcast/sics-r… @SwinHASS @AgainPlay @ArchOzMediaArts

Awesome convo between @melswal @lcurham01 @LucasIhlein and myself on #AudioVisualHeritage for #wdavh2022 thanks @CharlesSturtUni for the opportunity to talk about change and #CulturalHeritage

@ablwr Thank you so much

Hey #digitalpreservation people- what is the name of that awesome anthology book of audio-visual formats they came out a few years ago? It’s hard back and has a red interior with illustrations and possible printed in Germany? Any leads??

@CantMuseum Amazing news! It took too long to happen but good to see the museum evolve it’s practices and advocate for change

Museum staff, with the support of mana whenua, last night removed the mannequins from four dioramas in our galleries that depict early Māori life in Te Waipounamu (the South Island). Watch the video here: youtu.be/KOTplV3CsIM

@ablwr @MichaelHGrant Purchased! Many thanks

What is making my heart as happy as a clam tonight? I got my copies of @ablwr’s Illustrated Guide to Video Formats in the mail!! I am in a happy heaven of videotape pictures and factoids. Thank you for this wonderful work, Ashley!!! ❤️ 📼 💿 🙂

@TinaRiversRyan @Swagato Keen to read this paper when it is published- let us know :)

@Swagato Revisiting all of this stuff for an essay ;)

On the museum as a “semi-utopian” space that hasn’t been made irrelevant by media art (book is from 2011)

@jonippolito @OyaRieger @rschon Yes! I have had to explain this to multiple clients recently who understandably are getting trapped by the buzzwords from commercial vendors.

The brutal conclusion of a "broad examination of the digital preservation and curation system landscape" by @OyaRieger @rschon Liam Sweeney: very little digital preservation is actually taking place sr.ithaka.org/publications/t… #digipres
