Mindful Memories Project - Memory Room 2
Channel: Christopher Stuart
Date: 26/10/2017

This is a Seven Part video adventure for an "art brut remix" project at Clemson University in RCID 8120: Cultural Critiques of Mechanical Reproduction course taught by Dr. Haynes. 

The quotes in these video clips are pulled from the essays and books of Walter Benjamin. In particular, the quotes are from One-Way Street, "The Work of Art in the Age of Industry," and The Arcades Project.

The Mindful Memories composition is an exploration and a remembrance of my childhood and video games that were triggered by specific songs. The interjection and introductions produced by the quote by Walter Benjamin play with the ideas of space, place, memory, wanderings, exploration, and the act of remembering. Please follow the links from Introduction to Passage to Memory Room.
