Abstract: Scientists in a variety of fields assemble molecules to form new physical structures. Selected molecules can be equipped with memory, responsiveness, and sensory characteristics and designed to engage in constructive pursuits. Investigation and analysis of the potential composition and arrangement of these molecules should reveal their appropriate uses consistent with our understanding of their potential significance. This investigation focuses on storage technologies as they make human knowledge and experience not only accessible, but also repeatable. In the not too distant future, we may employ designer molecules equipped to sense, diagnose, trigger, scavenge, purge, protect, and heal the memory in which they are embedded. We shall briefly consider the enabling technologies and their potential to respond to our growing storage needs while keeping in mind the criteria that inspired current storage system designs, and if they are to be made intelligent, how that might be done.

bio
Ed H. Zwaneveld has directed technological research and development at the National Film Board of Canada since 1982. He has been responsible for more than 160 research and development projects that have advanced the state of technology and creative latitude in film and television production, post-production, distribution, and the management of A/V assets. As a member of the Canadian Task Force on the Preservation and Enhanced Use of Canada's A/V Heritage, Zwaneveld initiated work to modernize media asset preservation processes and develop appropriate practices for the extended-term preservation, migration, and use of audiovisual works on all media. Currently, he chairs the SMPTE V16.07 Work Group on Television Archiving. He has also served as AMIA Preservation Committee Chair and Team Leader of Work Package 1 on Legacy Archives of the EBU/IFTA Future Television Archives (P/FTA). A SMPTE Fellow, Zwaneveld is the recipient of its Technicolor/Herbert T. Kalmus Gold Medal Award and Samuel L. Warner Memorial Medal Award; an AMPAS Technical Achievement Academy Award; and an Outstanding Achievement Award in Engineering Development from NATAS. He has authored and published 75 technical and research papers in six languages. Educated in the Netherlands, he holds a degree in mechanical engineering and is a member of the FKTG (Berlin), BKSTS (London) and the IBC Council (London). Zwaneveld is establishing an International Innovation Coaching Practice for the Entertainment and Media Industry.
