Shape of Chaos

An exploration of the tampering of collective memory
Being DigitalIdentity

"Collective memory is of paramount importance to society and culture, and collective memory is not just a simple aggregation of individual memories, but constitutes a key element in the maintenance of social structures and cultures." The tampering of collective memory is an unconscious act influenced to some extent by society rather than the result of individual efforts. To some extent, it can cause cognitive confusion and identity crisis, generate cultural faults and historical controversies, and trigger social division and group conflicts, thus profoundly affecting human beings' perception of the past as well as their development in the future.

If collective memory can be easily altered, how can we prove that the memories we have now have not been tampered with? In this project, we would like to challenge the human perception of truth and falsehood at the level of memory through a short experimental film with a sight of standing in a future point in time and seeing today as the past.
