The first section, Memory Keepers: Unraveling the Layers of Archives, is a thesis that explores the crucial role of archives in preserving memories and shaping historical understanding. It examines the evolu- tion, challenges and philosophical implications of archival practices, highlighting their significance in preserving cultural heritage and personal experiences. In the second section of the book you will find a col- lection of questions, titled Personal Archive. This archive is a series of questions followed by answers sourced from the in- ternet. These questions represent my interest and thoughts throughout the year. Some of them are answered with only one source, while others include multiple sources, indicated by the numbers (1) or (2). Answers may come in the form of text or photographs. In some cases the questions are accompanied by scanned pages from other books, showing how I sought out words that resonated with them. While I aim to be transparent, there are some aspects I would like to keep to myself. You will notice that some parts of the book are blurred out, indicating that this information is actually none of your business and I would prefer to keep it private. This publication embodies my desire to preserve the knowledge I encounter and the memories they evoke. By docu- menting my thoughts, I aim to create a lasting record that cap- tures information and memory. ER -
