The record is a "mediated and ever-changing construction" ; records are "constantly evolving, ever mutating" , over time and space infusing and exhaling what I have called ‘tacit narratives’. These are embedded in the activations of the record. Every interaction, intervention, interrogation, and interpretation by creator, user, and archivist activitates the record. These activations may happen consecutively or simultaneously, at different times, in different places and contexts. Moreover, as I argued before, any activation is distributed between texts and other agents in a network. The record, “always in a state of becoming”, has therefore many creators and, consequently, many who may claim the record’s authorship and ownership
