AFELL: Preserving At-Risk Websites

I was invited to speak to AFELL (Artist Foundation & Estate Leaders List) about my new website preservation project Substratum. AFELL is a private email and online discussion group regarding the labor and best practices in organizing, maintaining and leading artist foundations, estates, and family collections. 

From the website:

When artists, musicians, and cultural organizations conclude their missions, the websites that represented them are left at risk of disappearing. Without preservation, these digital spaces vanish and links break, fragmenting our shared digital heritage and making important cultural contributions inaccessible.

Join Substratum founder Yann Novak and learn how Substratum is working to become the groundwork that preserves these corners of the web. Yann will share how Substratum transforms complex technical infrastructure into streamlined static websites through domain stewardship, technical streamlining, and content preservation—ensuring that these legacies remain accessible exactly as creators intended.

They have made the talk public and you can watch via their site.
