born-digital artworks

Born-digital artworks are creations that exist entirely in digital form from the moment of their inception. They are produced using digital tools, software, or computer code, and are intended to be experienced electronically rather than as physical objects. Examples include digital paintings, virtual sculptures, electronic music, and internet-based projects. These artworks often leverage the unique qualities of digital media, such as interactivity, animation, or data manipulation. Because they are inherently digital, they may require specific hardware or software to display or interact with, and their preservation involves digital conservation techniques.
