Re: [-empyre-] Who decides and what to preserve

[Komninos Zervos <k.zervos@griffith.edu.au>]

what is wrong with the rhizome.org method of letting the artists apply to
be included in the artbase, ensure that the cloned art project is
translated into the future technologies and charge people to use the
artbase for research/entertainment/recreation?

also is there somebody, library? collecting all the versions of all the
software that has been released?

and for that matter is there a physical repository of outdated technology,
gramophones, record players, tapedecks, beta video machines, early
computers, etc ?
