Index Of Memento 2000 -

The Indexing of Absence Absence requires methodology. In the system of Memento 2000, indexers devised protocols to measure what isn’t there: intervals between calls, gaps in letters, the mathematics of not-arriving. These are cross-tabulated with weather, with playlists, with the length of cigarette burns on ashtrays. Absence, when indexed, becomes a pattern that tempts the illusion of understanding. We learn to read the spaces between entries like Braille and find that every missing thing leaves fingerprints.
