Are your most precious moments rotting away? Mine are dangerously close.
My father was a television director, so there are very few moments of my life that have gone undocumented. However, those memories were captured on various media: Super 8 (that’s FILM for you young ‘uns), Betamax, VHS, Hi-8, and so on. And NONE of those home movies have been transferred to digital. Until recently, most of them resided at my mother’s house in hot and humid Miami. Heat and humidity are the two worst enemies of media, and those memories captured on film and tape are at risk of being lost if I don’t convert them to safer media soon.
