We are pleased to announce our work on an extensive digital archive of Barry's talks over 30 years – this expansive repository houses an impressive collection comprising approximately 1000 hours of video footage and a staggering 2000 hours of audio recordings, spanning a rich tapestry of content accumulated over the course of three decades.
Over the course of three painstaking years, a dedicated team embarked on an ambitious journey to digitize and modernize a vast collection of historical audio and video materials stored sometimes on obsolete formats like cassettes and magnetic tapes. The project, born out of a commitment to preserving cultural heritage and preventing the loss of invaluable content, required meticulous planning, state-of-the-art technology, and a deep understanding of both analog and digital audiovisual systems.
In the coming weeks and months we will make further announcements about this digital archive.
