The universe is a block of the past, the present, and the future, but we consciously exist in time, because we can only see a particular moment in time. In this fuzzy world, our consciousness of data preservation is born. Data preservation is an eternal proposition. The digital age has completely changed our relationship with matter and nature.
From the past, when people recorded regulations and declarations on clay, stone, vellum paper or parchment paper, to later people invented the floppy disk and USB. However, with the development of science and technology, the storage media are updated iteratively faster, and more and more information disappeared into the digital divide because of it. Just imagine, what will happen to future data preservation? The relationship between human beings and data is symbiotic and inherited.
In this project, I exaggerate time and space and let people reexamine their relationship with data. I am trying to create a new time data storage file, which can store the data you want to save permanently, and it will not be affected by environmental changes and technological developments. Even if human civilization no longer exists, data will be left behind.
Perhaps it will be carried to the moon and buried in decades, or it will be discovered by extraterrestrial species thousands of years later. It will be the witness and continuation of human civilization. Through this project, I hope to explore how data storage will exist and be understood by humans in the future and how we define eternity.
