The Amnesia Atlas. An immersive SenseCam interface as memory-prosthesis

Abstract

The Amnesia Atlas constitutes a pilot study for a photographic media interface as memory prosthesis. It utilises the wearable life-logging camera SenseCam to shed light on the importance of photographic imagery and place for memory retrieval. It investigates the relationships of spatiotemporal context on memory encoding and retrieval, utilising immersive 3D visualisation.
