Cultural objects created through digital technologies (literary works, documents, media…), due to their physical fragility, are threatened by obsolescence and disappearance. In order to prevent the permanent loss of these objects, conceptors use descriptive markers to ensure their long-term preservation. Among such markers, a variety of metadata – technical, legal, document or archival metadata – constitute a characteristic component of digital preservation. This article examines the consequences, in terms of memory and loss, by considering the nature and specificity of digital documents as well as emergent practices such as "digital remix". |
