CAMILLO Memo 2.0
THEATRE OF FUTURE MEMORY
|
theatre of Memory is an open net of information on existing and nonexisting, on happened and
nonhappened, on past and future events, on people who might make history, but history didn't care
about them and on people who, (un)fortunately, made history.
|
It was created by renaissance genius Giulio Camillo as one of the first attempts for a global
interactive communication. It was meant to be a place where all the knowledge on the Universe would
be available. the permanent refreshing remembering machine, in which there is no border between
past,
present and future time.
|
Memory has always been something related to the past. Camillo's theatre of Memory got its
fulfillment
not at the moment when it was finally built (in 1544, just before his death), but afterwards, when
it
was destroyed and disappeared just as Camillo himself. the theatre of Memory and Camillo himself
became lost traces and object of struggling for reentering the memory. they had to wait four
centuries to be rediscovered. the interest for Camillo grows particularly with extension of
internet.
|
they became objects of CREATIVE MEMORY, memory which doesn't mean simple using information from a
storage of knowledge, but a struggle for getting disappeared and remembering what might happen. A
struggle for something expressed by Magritte: "An object is not so obsessed with its name that we
couldn't find another, more appropriate to itself". History is nothing but a permanent RECREATION OF
MEMORY. History of future as well.

Dear visitor, we are building a theatre of Memory on 21st Century. there is a net of
concepts/terms/ideas in front of you. this net is a random selection of terms written by former
visitors. Some fields are still empty (the computer program has the right to ignore the terms it
finds inappropriate!).
We kindly ask you to free your vision and to write down CONCEPTS FOR 21st CENTURY, the concepts (as
much as you want) which will roll our and future lifes in next 100 years.
|
Your vision will be used only and exclusively as a part of ongoing project CAMILLO, which had its first major manifestation in
Piccolo
Teatro di Milano in May 5th to 17th, 1998 (in form of
work-in-progress theatre performance).
If you would like to know more about the project and to send your individual opinion, please send
