This rainy weekend I took the CDs, hard drives and USB drives that I've kept from my youth and I've been looking inside; I've found many things: projects that have never seen the light, old photos, texts, lots of old programs... Those who in the last 20 years have gone from support to support as if it were an indefinite memory. Documenting your whole life without being aware of this process. In the meantime, I've created a lot of electronic waste. On this journey, digital memory has become a monster I didn't even want to look at, and it's taken me years to find the strength to manage the monster. Once the work is started, where to store the memory? On your own devices or on your other device (cloud)? The decision-making variables are many: security, privacy, economic cost, ecological cost, management facilities... At the moment, as in the past with the photo albums, I have decided to have my memory on an old home computer, because I have that possibility. When I worked with young migrants, I realized that my possibilities were impossible for them, those who don't have a fixed place to live can't create their own systems, their choice is free clouds of advertising companies, so that they can have a copy of their most important documents somewhere. In the lack of opportunities to live, lives are institutionalized and in the institutionalized lives the option of privacy disappears, getting used to living in permanent surveillance. To deal with this memory monster, several young Basques are using old technologies, in the case of photographs: the reel chamber. If you want, you could build your own digital systems, but it looks like you're looking for less: less complexity, less management, less content.
At the moment, I'm thinking about what to do with these "electronic corpses" that I have; I can reuse USB flash drives and hard drives, but CDs will only be useful for smelling birds in the orchard.
