Albuquerque approaches born-digital preservation from the tension between technological continuity and artistic intention. Migration, emulation, decentralised storage and documentation are necessary because hardware, formats and playback environments decay at different speeds, yet each intervention risks altering the aesthetic and historical properties that make a work recognisable. Her strongest proposition is that the artwork lives through devices without being reducible to them. The medium therefore functions simultaneously as technical support, historical evidence and a potential component of aesthetic meaning. Through case-oriented discussion, Albuquerque distinguishes strategies such as documentation, migration, emulation and re-creation while foregrounding the losses and reinterpretations each strategy can produce. The essay bridges digital heritage with conservation ethics by refusing the fantasy of technically neutral preservation. To keep a digitally born work accessible is already to make decisions about what counts as essential, replaceable or contextually significant, turning preservation into an interpretive practice concerned with continuity across non-equivalent technological bodies.
