@hipsterelectron > declare whatever the west thought was “worth” digitizing or whatever submits to those logic “all the world’s knowledge”. Yes! That has been a fascinating conversation among archivists that sometimes comes up on my radar. I too thought it was super exciting to archive "all the worlds knowledge". It did not occur to me that was a cultural bias. Not all knowledge should be archived, it invoked a lot of cognitive dissonance in my brain!

    @hipsterelectron A side effect of "modernity" has been different cultures bumping up together and changing one-another - I have been changed. Discombobulating, but my culture is better for it
