While I was browsing at my phone's albums, I was constantly perplexed as to when and where the images were taken. In Been There, Go Again, I hope to investigate a sustainable strategy for connecting the condition of my memory deterioration and thinking about memory technology. The anthropologist André Leroi-Gourhan determined in his research on ancient humans that life cannot find a new evolutionary path within itself, but can hunt for technical externalization techniques. Similarly, people no longer need to remember with their spirits and are gravitating toward external memory technology. This memory technique (hypomnemata), which Bernard Stiegler defined as "amnesia," is a short-circuit tool.
This work entails data transformation and reproduction methodology, such as selecting unimpressed images from phone albums and returning to that location to reshoot and add new information. New memory retention is created by actively augmenting the details of amnesia and properly creating the scene. This work can be considered as a memory reactivation metaphor, retelling the prior short-term memory into a new long-term memory. By recreating memory technology to examine memory perception.
