Extent

13 websites in 13 archived websites.

Scope and Contents

This series contains the main website for Creative Time, as well as its subdomains. The website is made up of a listing of all of their projects dating back to 1974. Each project page can contain an overview of the artwork, a biography of the artist, visitor information, images and/or video of the work, digital platforms of the art, curatorial statements, press about the project, contextual resources, guides or syllabi associated with the work, and public events surrounding the work. The website also features a blog with news from the arts organization, event listings at CTHQ, and information on the Creative Time Summit. The website also documents their projects in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their web presence also includes projects related to the Creative Time Think Tank and other 50th anniversary celebrations in 2021.

The series also includes multiple digital publications, including their two Tumblr blogs and Creative Time Reports (2012-2017). Creative Time Reports focused on political analysis, commentary, op-eds, podcasts, photo galleries, and videos from the artists' perspective. Topics covered in Reports include civil liberties, climate change, conflict zones, the economy, elections, feminism, LGBTQIA+ rights, migration, incarceration, race, and uprisings.

Accruals

New site crawls are accrued quarterly.

Appraisal

Crawl was limited to domains and subdomains of creativetime.org in order to remain within the collection scope and data constraints.

Website was rescoped to attempt to capture the Google documents in the website.

Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

Due to technical or privacy issues, archived websites may not be exact copies of the original website at the time of the web crawl. Certain file types will not be captured dependent on how they are embedded in the site. Other parts of websites that the crawler has difficulty capturing includes Javascript, streaming content, database-driven content, and highly interactive content.
