It is hard to imagine that the differences will be as great, considering, as Shillingsburg says, already authors are beginning to deal with works that never existed in any but electronic forms (97). But that raises another question, which is, are we richer or poorer for that narrowing gap?Glenn Kubishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12574419243419706178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1162330207530103649.post-65829388341417663632012-01-29T19:37:36.572-07:002012-01-29T19:37:36.572-07:00Glenn - very interesting to think about preservati...Glenn - very interesting to think about preservation and how it alters the original. I suppose the word itself, preservation is a misnomer because we never are able to actually preserve something...even fossilised elements are not the *original*. And then, of course, what exactly is the original? What you see? What I see? I think you're example of preserving silent films really highlights these questions. But, do you think the gap between the *original* and the *preserved* outcome will be as great (or at least, feel as great) with future technologies and creations?Dr. Jessica Laccettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12820510348273741004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1162330207530103649.post-39396201195960424622012-01-29T15:29:57.962-07:002012-01-29T15:29:57.962-07:00I was having similar thoughts after viewing The Ar...I was having similar thoughts after viewing The Artist this weekend too, Glenn! <br /><br />The thing that strikes me as odd about their popularity is they're movies about how great film used to be. I can't help but feel like their existence is an attack on newer digital methods, a way to discredit technology. <br /><br />I still can't get over that Hugo was in 3D- surely an innovation that Meliers would denounce!Jarett MacLeodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03718677669971456336noreply@blogger.com
