My concept - Format of Life



I feel like us a human being can linked to the development of new technologies and the fall of outdated ones like VHS. From birth we are considered to be getting greater by gaining knowledge, wisdom and understanding. However the one factor that stops us from becoming a sort of ‘winning format’ is that of our deterioration of health as we continue to grow older. The older generation could be seen as ‘living dead formats’ as it were. They hold vast amounts of information but due to their ‘incompatible’ nature with everyday modern society they are slowly lost in the depths of the modern life that grows around us.

So what can play the information they hold? Because people remember a specific technology through their memories. I propose to use a specific dead format in a creative way to encourage nostalgic feelings from their past.

The project may not have a final physical tangible structure that has a place because it is the audience that will experience the outcome through their own individual nostalgia experiences.
