Short Overview of the Science

Anyone can make a video, but to make a video worth remembering, to preserve it, and to ensure it can easily be found in 300 years is a major challenge. In this video we describe how we addressed the four key challenges which help our customers overcome these obstacles.

Making Something Worth Remembering

How to make Capsules and Videos worth remembering. In this video we talk about how to capture your Video Time Capsule, how to use the app, and your options around sharing your Video on our stunning video platform.

Preservation Technology

How to ensure the technology survives 300 years. Describing our approach to updating the technology, archiving / storage practices and the policies and standards we adhere to which work together to protect the archive.

Discovering the Capsules

What’s the point of preserving a time capsule for 300 years if no one knows how to find it? We discuss our “proof of existence” layers we put down in the genealogy records, in the library and on the blockchain.

Keeping the Capsules in Trust

Who will look after the Videos when we are all gone? in this video we describe the library and Guarantee Trust and how we have created a framework to ensure the archives are cared for centuries.
