The Brave New Future of the Recent Past

Date TBA

Screen-based media is today’s dominant cultural form, yet the technologies used to create and deliver culture are racing ahead of those that preserve it, and collecting institutions' expertise is focused on physical artefacts.
Concurrently, digitisation and preservation of Indigenous culture, knowledges and metadata is vital to ensuring that Indigenous stories are stored and told authentically and appropriately.
Join library, broadcasting, museum and archiving professionals as they forecast challenges and solutions for collecting and preserving contemporary culture now, for the future.
