Reworking the brief

After receiving the brief feedback, the concept of memory will be detached from that of digital or non-digital artefacts. The brief needs to incorporate academic memory theory, recent developments in the technology field related to memory, current and potential interventions.

A rough outline of research steps:

1. understanding how human memory works (academic research) factors/significance
2. investigating these theories (personal research)
once human memory is understood, understanding of 'the overlooked' i.e. things that are not remembered much or at all/things that influence but are not remembered
3. Investigating the overlooked (personal research)
4. Developing an intervention

The working title of my brief is 'Memory: Hiding in plain sight'

Area of interest: overlooked memories. The quantified self: using data from an individual’s/a group of individuals lives
