How to preserve and transmit its fragile heritage?

Interface Cultures lädt zum Gastvortrag von Celine Thomas im Rahmen der Interface Lectures Series.

The obsolescence of hardware and software involved in the demonstration of digital art is extremely fast. The interactive work of digital art offers the viewer an experience he has to live. In order to ensure that future generations, far beyond the physical lifespan of current computing devices, can experience these works, the research projet of the Labex Arts-H2H, named « Digital art and Posterity », proposes to develop a general descriptive system of these works of art.
