MDPE.11:2.6 - Preserve only traces with a use
| Receiving use | Possible direct trace | Important limit |
|---|---|---|
| rehearsal or performer reflection | short audio/video segment, code state, cue note, performer annotation | recording or self-report can omit partner, body, or audience relations |
| creation revision | changed score, choreography note, diff, stem, take, marked phrase | the revision does not establish later enactment |
| technical diagnosis | sensor trace, latency log, actuation record, synchronized capture | measured features may not represent artistic or partner meaning |
| teaching or transmission | annotated example and conditions under which the distinction was recoverable | one example does not establish transfer or retention |
| later observation | occurrence locator, provenance, observer conditions, source return | observation and comparison belong to MDPE.12 |
A direct artifact is not automatically published, accessible, current, or sufficient evidence. Use publication, memory, and lineage patterns when those later relations matter.
