What is a digital heirloom?
A digital heirloom is a personal digital artifact — photo, video, message — treated with the intentionality of a physical keepsake: chosen, kept close, and allowed to resurface across years.
Context
Physical heirlooms work by reappearance, not storage; the locket gets opened. Digital heirlooms need machinery for reappearance, which is what memory rotations provide.
