Google has become an extension of ourselves. We know more and more where to find information instead of actually knowing the information itself. Research revealed that people who made a photo of an object remember less of the actual object then people who were ‘just looking’.
Sometimes is catch myself looking up a place, object or person. I don’t have a clear picture in my head of how it looked like. I visualise it and it becomes a new object. After typing it into google I can see the image. It takes over my initial idea. I now share the same image of this object with millions of other people. It doesn’t belong to me anymore.
What does our connection and reliability on our technical devices mean for our memory?
What does it mean to for our individuality if we let alghoritms define our ‘most important moments of 2016’. Are we slowly but surely moving towards an homogenic hump of memory?
Ideas
I started writing a script and noted down different ideas for the eye project. My latest idea is to make a short movie / edit.
The Eye project and my self-directed research are closely related. For the eye project I pitched an idea for a short film made out of mostly stock footage and found footage.
The short movie will be about the construction of memory. The narrator (in VO) will tell a story and at the same time question the authenticity of the memories she will be describing.
For now I did some visual research by making some test-edits and tryouts. I still don’t have a clear idea of what the work is going to be.
