avatars memory website is a project which questions our past and
present digital identities on the web. What proportion do our
numerical lives take on our daily reality with social networking?
How far do our virtual identities affect our daily life?
in spite of their ephemeral characters, our virtual lives seem more
and more permeable with our real lives. We contribute to communities,
'social networking' on internet. Sometimes we have true relations with
digital people but without knowing our real interlocutors directly.
these identities like: loggin, mail address, contour, simple avatars are
so many digital characters created for opportunity and which come one
after each other. They replace themselves and faint in time for various
reasons without a trace of remaining.These ephemeral lives, these little
deceases which disappear in a forgotten virtual space-time, are passages
which take place in silence.
in order to the memory of the disappeared avatars, avatarsmemory.com
has been invented to create a graveyard for these lost avatars. this
graveyard aim is to accept 'numerical spoils' and to take a stock of
them on a register footprint. this online database gives birth to a
space of memory which marks the passage of irremovable time faced with
our numerous social existence on internet.
