越烤越糊 Overcooked第三道：AAAAARCHIVE! 谈到 Archive 这个词时我们想到的是什么？装满文件的纸箱、阴冷的储藏室、宏伟的建筑.....或者是图书馆、博物馆、美术馆和资料馆里那些我们被禁止进入的房间，里面装着关于媒介和历史的无尽秘密。它可以指一组物（或非物）、一个存在（或非存在）的场所、一种（或多种）职业、一连串（持续数年）的动作；它被弗洛伊德、本雅明、福柯、德里达等等巨擘翻来覆去地论述，又被当代艺术和影像作品以各种形式运用和展示。
本期仅作为抛砖引玉，希望能稍稍稍微拓宽一点大家对 Archive 的理解，但关于这个概念能讲的太多太多，短短一小时难以承载烤糊脑海中那些一个比一个有意思的🌰——待烤写完这篇论文，再给大家娓娓道来!
第三道的食材是 Archive ，以下是我们在烹饪过程中加入的主要佐料：

It would be another decade before Women’s Studies evolved into Gender Studies and Queer Studies emerged, which created a new context for PowerPlay.
