Do Algorithms Keep Memories? - Fentanes, Carlos - 001
In an age of constant revision and digital erasure, this artwork offers an alternative: a machine that accumulates without overwriting. Each day, a randomly chosen color appears as a single, rounded dot — not to correct, predict, or dominate, but simply to stay.
The result is a slow visual memory. One mark a day. Nothing deleted. Each dot a quiet trace of presence.
Unlike predictive AI that speculates about the future, this algorithm remembers — softly. It does not chase relevance; it grows through patience. Over time, the screen becomes a field of echoes: not of data, but of decisions. Not of noise, but of time kept.
In this work, the algorithm becomes an archivist. Not of truth, but of continuity. Perhaps this is the answer of tomorrow: not speed or foresight, but the right to remember.
