Organisations from Google to UNESCO are sounding alarm bells over what they say is a crisis in preserving art on the internet. Art experts fear that in a relatively short period of time, the software used to display several artforms will become so outdated that they will not be able to be read by the computers of tomorrow.

Greta Thunberg was all over international news when she famously glared at US President Donald Trump at the UN Climate Action Summit.

A controversy at next year's Oscars. Academy officials removed the Nigerian movie Lionheart from the Best International Feature Film category. And they did so, on a technicality.
