Your Filter module using Pipes version 1 (V1) removes all but one of any items that have no element called guid.content. Pipes version 2 (V2) does not do this it would seem (and my pipe is version 2). As of August 1 all pipes will be v2. In Pipes V2 there is a maximum of 10 feeds per Fetch Feed module. There is not, as far as I am aware, a limit on the number of Fetch Feed module in a pipe. This restriction applies only to new pipes. If you want any help please contact @hapdaniel (Paul Bradshaw knows me). So this pipe partially solves your “art” issue.

I'm more interested in democratising our cultural history by opening up recording to anyone rather than just transferring existing stuff online, location and history is one of the last bastions of the cultural gatekeepers.
