Come to the Library's third-floor Crosland Tower retroTECH lab Tuesday, April 1 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. for a group viewing of one of the Long Now Foundation’s lecture series and enjoy the conversation it sparks. 

This month's video is "This Moment Used To Be The Future." Interdisciplinary artist Alicia Eggert gave this talk in 2022, discussing her creative practice and the existential pursuit to understand the linear and finite nature of human life.

retroTECH’s Long Now Lecture Series is part of our charge to create the future by exploring and preserving our technological pasts. Each month we’ll dip into the archive at longnow.org and find a talk that connects with retroTECH’s research concern -- how our lives shape technology, and are shaped by it, over time – and follow that with an open discussion guided by a Georgia Tech librarian, archivist, or faculty member.
