Visiting Artists: Mnemosyne Initiative with Iris Brosch
the Center for Hellenic study/ Harvard university
For the Mnemosyne project Iris Brosch created a video Mnemosyne and the Digital Giants from her studio in Paris, while in isolation due to the pandemic. Within the past months, she captured with seismographic sensitivity Mnemosyne-related phenomena as an alternative draft to the social void defined by confusion and fear. In Mnemosyne and the Digital Giants, the futuristic googles of GAFAM (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft) lead into the third millennia with future memories as stored data, which she believes is going to control our minds’ memory. However, without a connection to Mnemosyne, who is the womb of knowledge and creativity, there is no future humanity. Iris Brosch sends a visionary message from the future into our present as a reminder of how we are at risk to become a function of the media and of market data.
