Bombproof Archives: Iron Mountain and the American Data Complex (RESCHEDULED)
Brian Michael Murphy, Dean of the College at Bennington College, asks: how and why did Americans become the most prolific generators and preservers of data on the planet?
This talk explores the archives and labs of a 150-acre facility located 220 feet underground. This network of bunkers safeguards "permanent" traces of American culture, records that certify state and corporate power, and a set of plans for national resurrection even after the end of the world. With those motives, it aims to establish an immortal America.
Event details
Co-hosted by the Humanities Institute and the Department of Comparative Studies. This event is free and open to the public.
