Resurrection is a method of maintenance and care. The idea for resurrection comes from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as a method of maintenance and care based in media archeology. I believe that these dead bordering the living share a collective past and common destiny in the veil, and hence also a simultaneity in time. As we remember the past, we connect futures of technologies and see what are the differences, genealogies that we would like to keep, what did we keep, what can come after? Taking space and time with them, dead tech could help us become more aware of the contemporary history of deprecation and cultural/digital waste and inspire us to dig deeper with every peck peck of the keyboard.
