The Vinyl Collaboration
January 19, 2010
This is where We, the Women and Men of the Information Age pay tribute and homage to the truest and most influential record of all time... the Vinyl Record. As our digital landscape expands towards a cultural infinity, incorporating our media heritage along the way, a new relationship is unfolding, a relationship of media as information and media as artifact. The digital era has severed the content of media from its physical embodiment, rendering content as intangible information while electing its material remains ever more significant. As hitRECord.org pioneers the digital frontier of media production, it becomes increasingly more valuable to comprehend the intricacies of digital information and media as material product. The Vinyl record, the most ramped physical incarnation of media, has not vanished, nor is it making a "comeback" or "resurgence," it has, in fact, adapted to the dominate media landscape and positioned itself as a most significant artifact of production. How is it more significant you ask? Lets find out. Lets open a conversation, a hitRECord discussion of RECords about records. Submit a record of how you use Vinyl, of why you like Vinyl, of your favorite experience with Vinyl. If you are not familiar with the medium but want to contribute!!! Don't worry, talk about your unfamiliarity, take a photo of a stack of vinyl that you come across in your days, mention your experience/interactions with the medium no matter how minute. If you are a serious or not so serious vinyl collector, a DJ, sound engineer, musician, a music lover, don't be too cool, contribute to this collaboration, help us appreciate the medium of Vinyl. If we can create a collection of RECords that celebrate the true record, the original medium of playing records, ultimately we can procure a collective appreciation that yields a greater understanding of material media in a digital world.
This is the "Work In Progress" of RE: Vinyl that we showed at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco on August 24th, 2011. Although it is not a more cohesive or "finished" video, a work in progress in this fashion really opens up the room for ensuing conversation.
