  • Video Games Belong In A Museum ft. Chloe Appleby & Chris Redman
    May 10 2024

    Ruby is joined by Powerhouse games curator Chloe Appleby and variable media conservator Chris Redman to discuss the ups, downs, and all arounds of video game preservation, and what Australia's museum world is doing to keep gaming's history intact.
