Can you have a memory without photographing it? Where does a memory live? How do we make sense of them? If it’s online, who owns it? What is association at a global scale? What are the conventions of western time and how might that be visualised or utilised? Can you live forever in the cloud?
data_shadow is a responsive visual database; a memory machine of sorts and a live continuously developing one. The images that constitute the database are a sequence of photographs and videos, collected over the past 11 years and tracks my relationships with people, things, places, and situations (all of which are viewable on the photo-sharing site Flickr®).
