This chapter focusses on interactions with digital artworks and the challenges of documenting these ephemeral enactments, before examining current research in digital curation and interaction to suggest practical strategies for preservation of interactive art in the long term.
Bringing together research from Human Computer Interaction and dramaturgy, the chapter outlines the broad types of interactions in immersive interactive virtual environments and the ways in which artists can design user/audience interactions and create trajectories of experience through technologically-driven artworks. Alongside recent research in user expectations of digital documentations of artworks, and an analysis of the most common drivers for both artists and curators, practical strategies for documentation and curation are balanced against the inherent challenges of this task, acknowledging and embracing that the process is, at its core, both creative and open-ended.
