Memories of Us
Will Abramson
Short Story
How will the future remember us? How will we remember ourselves as we live through the discontinuity and trauma of these times? What will we tell our children?
In 2045 a network of memory sanctuaries have emerged to gather, sustain and breathe life into localised memories of people and place. In doing so they attempt to stitch together the fractures in our shared tapestry of meaning and grow compassionate communities able to chart courses towards more kind, caring futures.
Memory sanctuaries view memory not as an immutable ledger of the fact, but a malleable source of shared meanings against which we continually define ourselves and others. They are an invitation to question and shape the stories we live by.
Memory is the soil in which the future grows.
Come see for yourself.
