‘Remembering Exhibitions’: From Point to Line to Web
Reesa Greenberg
The author discusses the proliferation of the new genre of ‘remembering exhibitions’ as part of the recent interest in the history of landmark exhibitions, and focuses on three forms of re-enactment which she terms replica, riff and reprise. She also considers open-source, open-access online archives that can reshape the recording, reception and reiteration of an exhibition.

Memory Map: An Interactive Installation That Maps
Memory Space to Physical Space
Memory Map is an interactive installation in which the memories, reflections, and anticipations of visitors become critical aesthetic elements. The physical space of a hall becomes a metaphor for the collective memory space of those who have visited the installation- for example, with the voices of those older than the present viewer coming from in front and those younger coming from behind.. The installation explores interface issues of 3-D sound and the mapping of conceptual abstractions to physical space.
