Abstract

Recent innovation in performance and new media documentation has highlighted the importance of documenting the life trajectories of these works. For complex works such as The Floating Museum by Lynn Hershman Leeson this means considering the work as a hybrid assemblage made up of documents, records, and historical documentation, as well as their reworkings over time.
