Abstrakt
The digital transformation of audiovisual archives has been facilitated in recent years by technological advancements: including new pieces of equipment for storage, preservation, restoration, and research, but also curatorship or distribution of their film collections that consist primarily of film stocks (Fossati, 2018). However, the advent of digitalisation has given emergence to new audiovisual artefacts. Such cases could include minor details such as the DVD menu, which exceeds the established archival categories and procedures, as it is an interface connected to specific media (both technological and visual) configuration.
