Scarcity of Diskspace
- Occasion
Underneath my scribbles of my idea. They idea about 'Scarcity of Disk Space' is driven by personal frustration. Since years I'm running out of disk space. I get at least once a month the warning “Your startup disk is almost full”? And what to do when that happens? My assumption is that I’m not the only one. I/m struggling with all the online (drive, dropbox, owncloud, etc) & offline (usb’s harddrives, NAS, etc) storage possibilities. My information is scattered all over the place, let alone who has access to it. Last Christmas I bought a NAS. Although since recently I managed to set it up, and approach it from outside my house. But who else can do so ;) Not sure if I protected it well. The latter is not really something I want to research further though. But honestly how often did it happen to you, that you get the warning “Your startup disk is almost full”?

Research around disk space, both offline and online. Make an inventory of disk space available offline and it's history https://www.flickr.com/photos/windkoh/6631418675/. Make an inventory of online disk space, and document all the ways services like Dropbox bargain extra space in exchange of promotion: http://trendblog.net/get-free-dropbox-space/. Compile a questionnaire and send it around amongst network. It might be interesting to draw a conceptual link with the rhetoric of “paperwork explosion” that was used to promote digitalization in the first place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IZw2CoYztk
