The problem with memory is that it’s so fleeting. There…just as we were just typing that sentence the moment is gone. British mobile company o2’s Memory Project also has this problem. Artist Jason Bruges has built an interactive cyclorama installation — a multi-camera exhibit that records a 360 degree outside view — where video screens on the inside can be manipulated by the participant to rewind exterior events, creating a sensation of short-term memory recall. The piece will go on tour through Edinburgh and Liverpool at the end of the month to promote Bluebook, a nifty service that automatically backs up your phone’s contact lists (assuming that you live in the UK.) Which reminds us, have you heard of the Memory Project from o2?
