You're talking about a relatively boring, staid field so someone being a fucker who also uses terms like Provenance and Dark Archives is going to get some amusement. |

fwiw, the LoC's digital archives newsletter had a short interview with him recently. |

But yeah, like shaqfu said, a lot of traditional archivists have an irritating tendency to be elitist about the term "archives". |

what they archive |

noone |
you dont find 1800s newspapers outside some kind of archive already |

they must be archiving newer things |

We are, or at least most larger archives are, but tbh most of us are kind of shit at it. |

And there's still an awful lot coming out still on good ol' fashioned paper |
|
02:09
🔗
|
mistym |
^ Very much this |
|
02:09
🔗
|
mistym |
Which is why many smaller archives have gotten on this far by pretending digital doesn't exist. There's plenty for them to archive on paper at the moment. |
|
02:10

shaqfu |
There's about a 30 year gap between creation and archiving, so email is just hitting now |
|
02:11
🔗
|
shaqfu |
And people are losing their heads over it |
|
02:11
🔗
|
shaqfu |
Keep in mind, email tends to be well-described via plaintext headers, compared to most records |

If you can't deal with email, God help you... |

cf. Sarah's Inbox, which took tens of thousands of pages of PRINTED OUT emails, and reconstructed a workable facsimile from OCR. |

That's a distressingly common solution - print it all out and deal with it then! |
