On Ocean Memory

Melody Jue’s talk presents an alternative, intriguing perspective of memory - that of the Ocean. As well as helping us imaginage how memory might work differently for life forms primarily oriented by smell.

The talk framed of memory as a active relationship between past, present and possible futures. The act of remembering, brings aspects of the past into the present using it to perceive, select from and move towards futures. In doing so we bring some of the past into the future.
