I'm enjoying the regular articles on The Memory Palace, written by academics in Philosophy of Memory.
The latest discusses whether memory is a 'natural kind' or 'social kind'.
That is, is memory based solely on neurology and other biological systems?
Or is memory something that exists in the context of social structures, like love or gender?

A Cyanotype: from prepared exposure to final image. An experiment for the Jetsam series.
1st - exposure of layers of plastic on top of cyanotype paper in a contact frame. Exposed for about 6 hours.
2nd - post-exposure / pre-development. The crucial step! Judging when to stop exposure is the hardest thing to learn
3rd - post-development 'final' image. Texture and structure as hoped!

A first experiment with Jetsam.
This is using lots of fragments of plastic matter of all kinds, but essentially 2D.
I am layering up to 5 or 6 pieces, as I want to develop texture.
The idea is that these fragments of memories come together to create a new composite memory. Perhaps in the way a socially-shared memory differs from the way any single individual might remember it.

Starting a new series - JETSAM
It's about memory; specifically, the things we use to help us remember, and the ways in which we forget.
I have been searching the shoreline for jetsam.
Some treasures will become evocative objects.
Others are fragments of memories.
The first step has been collection...

Abstraction and memory.
Scraps of cyanotype coated tissue paper - forgotten parts of other works - laid out in up to 6 layers as 'negatives'.
Sun reveals the constructed image. It reminds me of [ ].
And you?
It's a strange creative process.
Like searching for the memory of something you had forgotten that you remembered.

What's a 'memory trace'? How do we store memories? How do we recall memories?! How on earth does memory work at all!?!
Sarah Robins understands more than most, and talks about Philosophy of Memory on the Brain Inspired podcast.
