This workshop will attempt to answer these questions. As well as demystifying the terms and the technologies\, the workshop will also address the challenges which institutions may face in seeking to make use of Web 2.0 to support the needs of their users.

It’s widely understood that the special challenges of conserving film\, video\, computer-based\, and interactive art demand collaborative efforts—shared responsibility among a wide array of disciplines. Over the past decade\, best practices and shared principles about the care of this art have been developed…emulation\, migration\, variability. But how do these practices actually work in the real world?
