Fabrication of Memories
Today I went to the library and borrowed several books on cyber space and new media.
I am hoping this will help me understand what I am trying to create because I am starting to get confused.
Before I forget, I need to write the reason why I chose the project title to be called "Journal of Memories." This is just a summary of the reason, but I plan to describe it in depth during spring quarter.
Memories tell a lie as it cannot be trusted most of the time.
People tend to exaggerate the truth at times to make themselves look better or worse.
The memory sort of acts similar to what I learned in my script writing class. Every time a story is written for the first time it is not finished, but it is a draft. It needs to be revised, revised, and revised.
So the actual story in the beginning changes by receiving constructive criticism from others who have read the story. Words used in a sentence can dramatically change the whole entire story.
So when we read online material, it is necessary to be skeptical about the information provided to us because it may be fabricated, exaggerated or plagiarized.
Anyways, back to the main point. Memories become fabricated over time and that we incorporate them in our lives because our minds think it is real. The more it changes there will be more more changes in our own life.
Basically our life is similar to a draft and the book is not complete.
Humans have the power to change their book by using their minds as it is the most powerful weapon they own.
