Preservation Today
Preservation Today was an early digital heritage news and media experiment produced in 2008–2009, before Voices of the Past fully emerged. These restored netcasts explored preservation, archaeology, museums, technology, social media, public participation, and the changing ways cultural organizations were beginning to use the web. This archive brings together surviving episodes and recovered media from the original series, preserving them as part of the larger history of Voices of the Past. Some references, platforms, and links are now obsolete; the ideas and experiments they document helped shape the work that followed.
