the unform of memory amygdalé

The amygdala not only produces a quick response to fear, but also serves as a storehouse for the emotional memory… If the memory have a phobia, I think that this is the alzhaimer disease.

 

Antonio was born in 1945, worked like a typographer and now have alzhaimer in an advanced level. Now can remember only the sound of the machine. In this video I try to compose his life past through the subtitles that his son tell us, his most powerful and passion memory that is the typography together his actual condition through the sound.

 

A form of the memory in three different ways that recount different chronological moments that are connected at the same moment.
