The Home Videos We Never Meant to Keep

About this episode

Enjoying the show? Support it here. There was a time when recording video felt like an event. Then cameras got smaller, digital storage made recording easier, and suddenly we were capturing the ordinary moments too - family dinners, holidays, kids playing, conversations and afternoons that didn't seem important at the time. In this episode of Artifacts, Danny Brown looks at how home video changed what we chose to remember, and why those imperfect recordings can become some of the most meaningful artifacts we have.
