With VHS tapes degrading, most home videos from the '80s and '90s won't be viewable in a decade. Mary Kidd pops a VHS tape in the deck and rewinds. Two kids appear on the screen, dancing to music and laughing. Kidd and her colleagues meet in this loft in Tribeca in New York City every Monday to digitize tapes like this one. The loft has racks of tape decks, oscilloscopes, vector scopes and wave-form monitors that help ensure a quality transfer from analog to digital. Most work professionally, but they volunteer their free time to do this.
