YouTube Play - Live at the Guggenheim.

YouTube came to Barbarian a couple years ago asking us for ways to get the creative community to view YouTube as a creative canvas - a place to do more than post TV commercials. I.e. help monetize a site that serves more than 2 billion videos daily, and spends a fortune on hosting. This was not a TBG idea, but seems to be spawned from the same challenge.
Here is an overview from ABC News:
On Thursday night, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Google Inc.-owned video website presented "YouTube Play," an exhibit of 25 videos selected by a jury including the filmmaker Darren Aronofsky and the music group Animal Collective.
The videos, which are gathered online at YouTube.com/play and will be on view at the Guggenheim through Sunday, display a curious collision of mediums. The exhibit is an attempt to curate an essentially unmanageable library of content: Some two billion videos are watched daily on YouTube.
