College Central Saint Martins Course MA Narrative Environments Graduation year 2025 Memento is a digital archive and immersive spatial storytelling platform that enables people to preserve and revisit sentimental memories through objects. It allows users to build customizable spatial environments, adjust layouts, and collaborate to document shared experiences around objects. Through modular visual scene-building, Memento transforms memory preservation into an engaging and dynamic experience, allowing users to reconnect with meaningful objects from anywhere at any time. The platform introduces a new approach to digital curation, enabling users to organize, display, and categorize sentimental objects within time-sensitive virtual spaces. Unlike traditional static archives, Memento maximizes accessibility and interactivity, offering a living, evolving relationship with their memories. Features like memory-sharing and time-based manipulation foster emotional engagement across users, turning memory preservation into an active, collaborative process. In an increasingly mobile and digitally fragmented world, Memento addresses the emotional need for connection, belonging, and identity through memory. By integrating spatial design, emotional storytelling, and digital preservation, it redefines how we engage with nostalgic objects—offering a more participatory, human-centred approach to archiving. Memento seeks not only to safeguard personal histories but also to strengthen bonds across time, space, and communities, ensuring that our memories remain vivid, accessible, and alive.
