The digital age has witnessed the development of a new kind of
archive: immaterial, "living and moving," largely user-generated,
and conceived for managing a wide variety of audio-visual
materials, besides traditional films and videos. The first part of
this anthology investigates the ways in which media forms like
web-documentaries, video art and digital art, web series, amateur
productions, and also mobile films can be stored and preserved
within the new digital repositories. The second part focuses on
archival and preservation practices of the video game. This
approach understands the archive not simply as a "memory box," but
as a fully contemporary practice that locates new media objects in
the present and acknowledges their changing cultural and social
configurations. The democratic, often immaterial, living, mobile
nature of contemporary archives forces us to question whether or
not the traditional notion of "the archive" still has a heuristic
value. Or if it would be perhaps better to reject any
"conventional" idea of archive and embrace the notion of anarchive.
