“A few of us said, ‘Hey, why don’t we just start collecting our history? We’re the ones who best know what we need, what we want. Why let other people do that for us, because they’ll control our history? We were all people who really knew that our history was disappearing too quickly.”

While there are several nitrate film storage facilities on the East Coast, the West Coast has much more limited options. The most recent addition is nearly full. To fill this gap, PRO-TEK Vaults has spent the last 12 months designing a new state-of-the-art nitrate facility. But building a nitrate vault is not for the faint-of-heart. This week’s Screening Room is the third in a series of Conversations on topics important to our community and is open to everyone.

In 2023, the Video Game History Foundation revealed 87 percent of games released pre-2010 were currently not preserved in any capacity. Attempts previously made by the Library of Congress were halted by the ESA, which said it'd rely on publishers to take care of those efforts themselves.

Love fictional archives, especially in movies and video games. They can be so hilarious and, occasionally, insightful. This one is the Armistice Archives in STARFIELD. Enjoy this 90-sec game-play visit to the repository. (Compliments of Bobbie Fox, a colleague and a game connoisseur.) The access provision is curious (certainly not typical): a user is granted access to the storage but only to a pre-authorized section. It’s like the secure-box-in-a-vault arrangement (Gringotts Wizarding Bank or the Da Vinci Code’s vault). The records are technology secrets that require multi-party authorizations.

Magic on the screen at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival - "While these films are available on disc and streaming in excellent editions, the opportunity to see them on the screen with live music made them live again in a way that home viewings can’t capture."
