Ken Goldberg, Ouija 2000, 2000
Nice piece on NPR about preservation of digital art including interviews with artist Ken Goldberg and Digital Media Director & Curator Richard Rinehart of the Berkeley Art Museum (BAM). Rick discusses working with artists to create a script for variable media, a preservation strategy that emerged from the Guggenheim’s Variable Media Initiative. On the BAM site, Archiving the Avant-Garde is a great resource and includes a link to Rick’s paper A System of Formal Notation for Scoring Works of Digital and Variable Media Art.
