Media: 

Media will be embedded in relevant blog posts, but we are also going to create a media library / gallery as a separate page on the website where all the media can be easily found for reference. 

  • Images of cassettes: this could be a mixture of images we find online and ones we take ourselves
  • Documentary and transcript
  • Uncut (lightly edited) versions of documentary interviews with written transcripts
  • Primary sources (advertisements, reviews, interviews, etc.)

No AI will be used in the creation or selection of media on our website.
