GraciLou Ackerman Undergrad Photography Collection
No full textDays go by, rain comes and goes; buildings are built, occupied and abandoned. Walls that were once so vibrant with life are eventually silent. Generations upon generations witness the same subject with different eyes, perspective, and time. Minds are stimulated with excitement through the curiosity of our senses. Restoration and revitalization are a necessity to honor the enchantment that has once taken place. Constructing an infinite memory out of a perennial location is the goal to be achieved throughout the artwork.
I use photography, collage, and audio recordings to remember the industrial infrastructures that once held such importance. The now unoccupied spaces are brought into a contemporary context through my process of photographing the texture, linear pattern, and geometric depth still alive in these abandoned buildings, then collaging and abstracting the fragments. Audio recordings of industrial sounds familiar to my childhood home life add a third dimension. My work brings new life, in a new era, to these mostly overlooked shapes and forms.
Personal influences were cultivated within the small, blue-collar county of Carmi, Illinois; a town full of fleeting dreams. The remote town forced creativity and appreciation to be pushed beyond the stereotypical. One child might find peace, beauty, and comfort in the subway, or surfing in the ocean; however, for me, it was found in my own back yard. Watching my father work in his collapsing metal shop with his worn-out equipment. Waking up to the sound of a diesel engine running, a chain rustling, or an air pump accelerating might displease a stranger but to me, it is a lullaby and alarm clock. This is what I call home.https://digitalcommons.murraystate.edu/art399/1109/thumbnail.jp

Being is remembering:On Locke’s theory of consciousness, mnemohistory, and the game Remember me
No full textThis contribution discusses the concept of ‘mnemohistory’ through an analysis of the video game Remember Me. The game’s protagonist Nilin has the ability to manipulate other people’s memories by subtly changing details, which changes how they see themselves and act. The author analyses how the game connects memories to identity and consciousness based on Locke’s theory. It also explores themes of sin, temptation, paradise lost, and climate change. The contribution argues that the game shows how the past shapes the present through remembered history rather than objective facts. It raises questions about memory manipulation and who owns memories
