Will any of this be videotaped and put online?

I remember going to a panel discussion on hip hop at NYU and asking how will the video be made available. Unfortunately, they place it in the NYU vaults, only to be seen by students, and only discoverable if the student knows it is there! In other words the great discussion I attended would never be seen again.

I hope that doesn't happen there.

Unfortunatley they have no one there to audio or video tape the event.
