During the course of working with Sarah Smith on the Live Stream Traversal of
King of Space, she donated materials relating to its development to us so that we could share this information with scholars interested in further study of her work. This treasure trove of heretofore unavailable archival material include both digitalized copies of Smith's private papers and digital files saved to floppy disks of her planning papers, early drafts, sketches and other items that shed light on the work.
Part 1: Sarah Smith's Digital Copies of Private PapersThere are a total of 10 .pdf files representing Smith's private papers that she digitalized and shared with us. Of these, nine are available for download below:
