(2008) Transdisciplinary digital art. sound, vision and the new screen, Dordrecht, Springer.
Failure to preserve, migrate, and archive digital performances, artworks, literary expressions, hyperlinked resources, and interactive experiences created for the new screen—as well as the connections between their multimedia components, the texts, the images, the coded mechanisms that drive their interactivity—threatens their survival as markers in our collective artistic, literary, and cultural heritage. Digital archiving focuses on the preservation, presentation, and addition of value to such digital works. Several models are presented for how digital archiving for the new screen might be undertaken. Questions posed begin a discussion of how to both create and archive artifacts of the new screen, especially given its incunabular, ever-evolving display state.
