For the past twenty-five years,
Rick Prelinger (the founder of the Prelinger Archives) has amassed film material that is
generally ignored by traditional archives, resulting in a collection
that prioritizes access and reuse as methods of preservation. Focusing
on films on human perception, speech and sound recording and playback,
Prelinger’s illustrated talk contextualises the history of the
collection and looks at the future of archives and the possible end of
archival institutions.
