COLLECTIVE MEMORY




  

What happens to shared memories when the person you shared them with is no longer around?


This non-linear book called Collective Memory is about the shared pool of knowledge and information in the memories of two or more members of a social group, passed from one generation to the next. It parallels the memory of a person who is better at recalling images than words. The book is bound with a removable elastic band. This way the reader can play a part and make his or hers own story, by re-arranging the page's. Each book is signed, folded and bound by hand creating a unique book every time.
