The first part of this story was REALLY interesting and had some real world
application for me in what I do... in fact, we're contacting some of the
individuals mentioned in it.
There were two things I REALLY liked in Part two... the first was the name
of the group at Carnegie Mellon at the core of working on this project"
"The Frank-Raytche Studio for Creative Inquiry" and their Mission:
"Atypical and Anti-Disciplinary Research of the Intersection of Art,
Science, Technology and Culture"
...which sounds like an AWESOME place to work...
The second thing was the guy from the Warhol Museum, who said:
"I HATE Digital Preservation... I don't want to talk about it!" =)
So there's ANOTHER job that would be great to have...
(too bad you couldn't do either of these remotely!)
