"What has actually happened?"

Submitted by Shayna S on Sun, 03/28/2010 - 7:23pm.

...how do we keep track of what is actually happening?

Your question reminds me of 1984. It reminds me of the term memory hole, of Winston's job of destroying documents, and of the censorship theme throughout the book. I can't help but think of the power our perceived pasts have over our thoughts about the present and the future.  This line of thought leads me to the "RiP: A Remix Manifesto" documentary, in which we were told that the past tries to control the future. 

On another note, have you read the introductory essay in A Game of You?
