Yuhsien Chen

<p>This week on the show we are continuing to expand our perspective on the time-based media conservation ecosystem in Taiwan, with our guest Yuhsien Chen. In the handful of years that she has been dedicated to time-based media conservation, Yuhsien has been up to some incredibly exciting things. We heard her name come up back in episode 46 when visiting with her colleague and collaborator Tzu-Chuan Lin, about work they did together at the National Taiwan Museum of Art – and as you’ll hear in today’s chat there’s so much more. For years now Yuhsien has been leading the Save Media Art Project in Taiwan, and fascinatingly just wrapped up what I’m guessing is probably the first Fulbright scholarship focused on time-based media conservation, which brought her to New York City where she has been embedded within both the Museum of Modern Art – and Rhizome. Yuhsien however has been keen to find a way to carve out her niche in her hometown, and all of the information and practice that she observed and absorbed during her Fullbright has led some pretty surprising conclusions. Tune in to hear Yuhsien’s story!</p>
