Ancient Technologies: Modes of Memories
Joseph E. Coleman Northwest Regional Library
Generations of technologies evolve quickly. What's new today can soon feel ancient. Technology works in both physical and digital worlds, using various carriers or modes like video and audio to communicate memories. Some technologies travel through space and time along radio waves while others are tinkered with and fixed into existence.
Ancient Technologies: Modes of Memories is an invitation to memory, tinkering, various times and spaces. Items are alive. They move, show, tell. People are invited to interact with them and share memories about sounds, and places, and times. Items will interchange over the year. You can explore our currated booklist for the exhibition here.
Visit us to explore modes of memory and dream about the future of your past. This is a Hyperlocal Heritage program.
Join us for the opening celebration from 1:00 - 4:00 p., during our 2nd Annual Germantown Community Archiving Fair.
