A Collection of Misfits: Time-Based Media and the Museum aims to encourage a discourse about the practical and philosophical considerations involved in building, maintaining, exhibiting, and preserving time-based media art collections.

Bringing together professionals from all points along the media continuum–artists and archivists, curators and conservators, academics and media archaeologists–this symposium addresses the opportunities and challenges presented by working with time-based media.

From well-established museums to independent projects, from physical galleries to digital spaces, the symposium seeks out the sites where time-based media resides, with an eye toward innovative approaches in traditional and non-traditional venues alike.
