Reblogged from karaj

yet what happens to the blogs and tumblrs, these infinite, immaterial notebooks? one can erase them but even then they may persist, traces of them still saved somewhere on the internet. who is archiving these scraps of our existence? those who decide what is important or not to archive. who to preserve, what to throw away. if you are important enough, john tells me, any note or scribble relating to your work is valuable…this is a memory campaign. who is canonized, who is remembered.
