Bibliografie

Overzichtelijk werk waarin veel aspecten die te maken hebben met het opzettten van terminologieën aan de orde komen.

Onderzoek naar de heruitvinding van de begrippen 'archief' en 'archivering' in het digitale tijdperk. Er wordt gepoogd alle relevante theoretische, culturele en technologische ontwikkelingen te benoemen en aan te geven welke gevolgen ze hebben voor de opslag, verwerking en het behoud  van digitale documenten. Er wordt ingezoomd op de specifieke 'digitale' archiveringsvraagstukken rond selectie, betrouwbaarheid en het verzekeren van toegang. Ook de dynamische aard van digitale documenten komt aan de orde. Aan het eind worden mogelijke nieuwe vormen van gebruik  geschetst.

Een hyperobject heeft vijf kenmerken Viscosity Nonlocality Temporal undulation Phasing  Interobjectivity The five characteristics of hyperobjects are: Viscous: Hyperobjects adhere to any other object they touch, no matter how hard an object tries to resist. In this way, hyperobjects overrule ironic distance, meaning that the more an object tries to resist a hyperobject, the more glued to the hyperobject it becomes. Molten: Hyperobjects are so massive that they refute the idea that spacetime is fixed, concrete, and consistent. Nonlocal: Hyperobjects are massively distributed in time and space to the extent that their totality cannot be realized in any particular local manifestation. For example, global warming is a hyperobject that impacts meteorological conditions, such as tornado formation. According to Morton, though, objects don't feel global warming, but instead experience tornadoes as they cause damage in specific places. Thus, nonlocality describes the manner in which a hyperobject becomes more substantial than the local manifestations they produce. Phased: Hyperobjects occupy a higher-dimensional space than other entities can normally perceive. Thus, hyperobjects appear to come and go in three-dimensional space, but would appear differently if an observer could have a higher multidimensional view. Interobjective: Hyperobjects are formed by relations between more than one object. Consequently, objects are only able to perceive to the imprint, or "footprint," of a hyperobject upon other objects, revealed as information. For example, global warming is formed by interactions between the Sun, fossil fuels, and carbon dioxide, among other objects. Yet, global warming is made apparent through emissions levels, temperature changes, and ocean levels, making it seem as if global warming is a product of scientific models, rather than an object that predated its own measurement.
