WHAT HOW WHY
For the self-directed research I continued the ideas I was working on last year concerning memory and the digital. These have related subject that I worked on. I’ve been collecting and experimenting a lot with different forms of expression. It hasn’t become a concrete work yet.
Future Memory
I was thinking about how I could visualise the predictive nature of communication through social media like WhatsApp. I collected my frequently used emojis over the past 3 months. With autoscript I generated ‘future diary’ entries my phone would predict. In the green screen studio I made some video’s of ‘life’ emoji’s like aubergines and peaches (very meaningful emoji characters).
Memory on Stock

Memory on stock is an idea I thought of during the Utopia / Dystopia project. Starting point is the future of generative memory. What is a memory worth if you don’t have images with it that are not yours. How does stock footage take over the story and what is the meaning of the image in that sense.
It’s in many forms a construction. The construction of a memory, the construction of a story. But it’s gonna be a voice over with found-footage (archive, stock-footage, screen-recordings.. Might be some shot footage in there as well). The images must feel as a construction for as the voiceover, person who’s narrating, will be shifting between different aspects of the story).
