They may be modified commercial devices or machines built from scratch. This presentation will consider theories, guidelines, and practices within instrument conservation, industrial conservation, and time-based media conservation that are relevant to the conservation of machines. A central question is whether these machines can and should continue to be \u201cworked\u201d after they are collected.
