1. Ask people in advance. I asked De Geuzen, Anja Westerfrölke, and Nomeda and Gediminas Urbonas before they arrived in Brussels if they would agree to have a recorded discussion with me about archives.
2. Write your questions. Make them about what you want to know. Don’t make them too complicated because they might be confusing.
3. Record the interview. I used a minidisk recorder and a mic.
4. Transfer the interview from the minidisk to the computer. I did this with RCA cables and a mixing board hooked up to a computer. You could also use a firewire cable and hook it up directly to a computer. The software I used to capture the recordings was SoundForge 7.
5. Edit the interviews. The software I used to edit was SoundForge 7.
6. Diffuse the interviews. Just make sure that you check with the people you interviewed to be sure that they agree.
