What Does Documentary History Look Like in an Interactive World? From Nanook to @Nanook

How have the challenges facing filmmakers documenting historical events changed in a world where filmed images on-line can be virtually limitless and immediate? Does a multiplicity of sources and authors solve the problem of subjectivity? And as print journalism struggles to survive, what might future documentary projects look like? This panel explores where history documentaries may be going -- and in what format.
