Random Access Memories

Random Access Memories invites you on a voyage of remembrance.
Crafted from my own memories, fragments of sentences float in and out of view, some easily graspable, others more blurry or barely legible.
I grew up in an analog world but always worked in a digital one. My memories are somewhere in between the two realms: half computer bits, and half scents, scenes and sounds.

RAM is not just about me, it’s also an attempt to connect my memories to your own by taking you on an inner journey: What words did you read first? Where did they take you? What story arises, and what memories resurface?

RAM points you in a number of directions, ultimately the journey is your own.

Developed in p5js and WebGL for Atelier’s group show, Visual Poetry 2024, Random Access Memories is my 3rd long-form generative collection.

Keyboard Functions:
‘s’ saves a png image of the current screen
‘spacebar’ pauses / resumes default rotation
‘e’ / ‘d’ enables / disables the depth buffer (try it!)
mouse / trackpad drag to manually rotate the image and discover hidden facets of the cube.
