Memory, Memories, Data & Ephemera..
โMemory of Memoriesโ 2022, the 3D / 4D version is a 1/1 edition, currently existing in my freezer..
I have been playing with casting a bit again. Repetition is a vehicle of process, especially with making art..
How many dimensions do our human memories have?
This frozen 3-dimensional cast of an old outdated hard drive is co-dependent on a specific temperature to exist physically. The temperature determines its longevity in the 4th dimension of โtimeโ.
The images that you see here are 2-dimensional and will easily out live the 3D & 4D version mentioned above.
If we can see our personal memories as data, we know that they are stored, triggered and accessible via our thoughts and emotions, unlike the metaphor of a hard-drive that is not sentientโฆ yet.
But that day will perhaps come, when technology will know how to develop and deploy emotions to data..
But if the temperature changesโฆ
Hi Ryan,
I like your work, processes, and ideas behind it. Certainly, a HD can trigger memories, and emotions, we have an incredible amount of data and stories on old and new HDs some retrievable others lost. I also like to explore 3D and 4D connecting the past, present and future in my work.
You posed an interesting question about dimensions of human memories. This is the first time that I think about that; I found that a rotating Merkaba symbol kind of explains my idea about the dimensions of human memories.
Thank you so much!
I appreciate your words and love the Merkaba symbol reference!
Your comment expands the whole dialog! :))
