Permanence Through Change: The Variable Media Approach
Auteurs: Alain Depocas (ed.), Jon Ippolito (ed.) en Caitlin Jones (ed.) (2003)
De publicatie Permanence Through Change: The Variable Media Approach werd uitgegeven door het Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum New York, en de Daniel Langlois Foundation, Montreal.
When the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum submitted the Variable Media Network project based on the paradigm proposed by Jon Ippolito, the museum’s Associate Curator of Media Arts, we recognized the project’s potential as a model for approaching the issue of preserving nontraditional media artworks. The project was particularly valuable because it enabled research that was greatly needed in the field of art preservation. To the Guggenheim’s original proposal, we added a component: an actual emulation test case to preserve a digital work. We felt that while there have been many theories and discussions on preserving digital and dynamic artworks, there was a need for practical, emulation experiments from which much knowledge could be gained.
