Ep 72 - The Role of Photography in Archives - a podcast by BYWAP

For those of you who head the call of the Archives: this episode is for you. We’ve got archive fever, y’all! Your favorite BYWAP hosts are pulling out all the stops with today's Article Discussion as we dive deeply into a love letter to the hallowed halls of stored memories. Archives, especially photographs as both archival material and The Archive, have a lot to teach us about what we see, how we feel, and why we remember.  Join us as we wax poetically about boxes full of pictures, argue about the meaning of long-dead philosophers, and celebrate art in all its documentable forms.
