The $12 Million stuffed shark by Don Thompson
Has nothing to do with archiving but we had a discussion about how the value of art is established and Don Thompson gives some insight into how the economics of art works nowadays (also nice for Steves class).

Life logging
http://tegenlicht.vpro.nl/nieuws/2013/oktober/gordonbell.html (in Dutch)
Gordon Bell is since 1998 documenting and archiving his entire life - from registering phone calls to saving physiological/biometric data digitally. He also has a tiny camera hanging on his neck, which makes several photos automatically, on a daily basis.
He was one of the characters in the VPRO documentary 'Tech Mens', about 'tech-optimists', presented in Dutch television a few weeks ago. The documentary is mostly English spoken and can be seen here: http://tegenlicht.vpro.nl/afleveringen/2013-2014/TechMens.html
