Signal Lost: Archive Unzipped - Soundboard

(Page for the soundboard for the Signal Lost radio shows)

Oh I often feel like poeple see archiving as this process of gathering and keeping safe, I guess. But, I mean, if you take archiving out of this institutional and Western context, archiving has been a way of creating and building community and art for, like, years, within thousands of indiginous cultures. I mean, oral history is a form of archival practise, and that in itself is like, as we've seen, an artistic way of providing information.

So I really like the idea of an archive being anything but the structure we've already got. So, like, there's so much space for the process to become the end goal.

Euhm... Oh f***.

And then allow the public to come and like, ruffle through everything

So I think this also adds to this living archive, breathing archive... it's its own organism. That's really nice to see, I think, for me.

This media being shared is in itself a payment.
