Art and Obsolescence

I considered quitting my job to enroll in a degree program more narrowly focused on how time-based media is approached in other institutions, but this podcast became the source of everything I really need to know — and saved me at least 40k in additional student debt.

These high-quality podcasts feature conservators, curators, artists, and other professionals who've made—or are poised to make—a difference in preserving new media artworks. The art world can be a mysterious place to outsiders, but these conversations illuminate the many paths that can lead to a role in media conservation. They also bring to light the fascinating conundrums faced by a modern conservator, as well as the many urgent reasons we need more of them.

I love having the opportunity to hear Ben and his guests dive deep on the complexities of these pieces!
