This is a fantastic read. I'm curious what your process was for hosting and condensing the symposium; the contributions of wendi, isaac, ruby, and chris are grippingly intense. Is there a longer transcription of the conversations floating around? I would love to read it.
Some questions that popped up for me reading this: How do we know what is worth preserving? How can we know which present-day things will slip through the archive, to the deep consternation of future generations? What is the "historical record" anyway?!
