Thanks for the memory

This paper reports the trial of a memory prosthesis, SenseCam, as a resource for digital narratives. Over a period of one week, six participants were asked to use SenseCams to capture digital traces of their experiences, and to use the same to create ‘story telling’ materials for presentation. The study found that all users delighted in the devices, though the traces that the SenseCams produced...

HOW DOES MEMORY WORK? It turns out that there is one brain structure that appears to be a ‘memory maker’. Without it, we cannot remember anything that has happened to us, even from only a few minutes ago, let alone from last summer. Indeed, there was a very famous case of a patient named Henry Molaison (often referred to as H.M.), who had damage to his brain and was completely unable to form ne...

Modern approaches to learning and memory have shown conclusively that memory can be fractionated in complex ways and that this fractionation reflects the operation of “multiple memory systems” (McDonald and White 1993; Bechara et al. 1995). Of course, if there are multiple memory systems operating in parallel, then they must interact. On the face of it, one might expect that such interactions w...
