Subverting the Archive (A Radical Format Requires Radical Preservation)

On the fourth and final episode of this series I will analyze whether traditional cultural heritage institutions are doing their due diligence when is comes to archiving and preserving mixtapes. Moreover, I pose the question of whether traditional GLAM institutions should even be the primary stewards of such materials. This episode explores the restrictions, traditions, and practices archives implement and assess whether it's an appropriate home for born-digital mixtapes.
