Yeah, bring the older, more permanent media, like film (early ones ignite spontaneously), paper photo prints (faded, crumbling, flammable), vinyl (scratches, dust, warping), tape (media flakes off, brittleness, wear).

Let's face it: the only way to make sure something is going to last for the ages is to engrave it in clay and then fire the clay.

Or embed it in a fruitcake.

In the future we will all have massive storage fruitcakes.
