SummaryThe paper introduces Live Artifacts, persistent generative media that retain their generative logic instead of collapsing into static files, enabling context-dependent regeneration across modalities. It presents LiveCanvas, a visual authoring system treating layers as live generative specifications, evaluated with examples and a six-person qualitative study.
Why it mattersNames a new medium class between static files and interactive software, with an authoring prototype. Concept is useful for generative-content workflows, though the study is small and the system is not yet broadly available.
