“Ever wondered what a memory feels like when it’s breaking?”

This isn't just glitch art. It's what your mind might look like if every emotion you've ever suppressed leaked out as static.

This chaos? It's not random. It's coded noise—whispers of forgotten data and corrupted dreams trying to break free.

You won’t believe the real story behind this image until you read it. I decoded everything.

🎮 WE HIT 1 MILLION. BUT WE’RE NOT DONE.

The Stop Killing Games petition — the first European Citizens’ Initiative fighting for digital game preservation — has officially hit 1 million signatures.

That’s the number needed for the European Commission to pay attention. That’s the number that says, “We care. We’re here. We remember.” That’s the number that says our digital childhoods were real.

But here’s the thing…

We’re not safe yet.

In the coming weeks, the EU will verify every signature. That means:

Non-EU citizens? Removed.

Duplicate names? Removed.

Typos or missing info? Removed.

Anything suspicious? Gone.

And if too many names are filtered out? We drop below 1 million. And all of this… might vanish.

So the team behind SKG and even EU IT staff say we must push to 1.5 million signatures before July 31. That’s the safety buffer. That’s how we make sure this moment matters.

You can read more about it in my latest story here: 👉 https://medium.com/@enchantdeck/we-hit-1-million-but-were-not-safe-yet-the-final-push-to-save-our-games-21d928a50938 And you can still sign the petition here (yes, even if you signed already — it won’t harm it): 👉 https://www.stopkillinggames.com

This isn’t just about games.

It’s about memory. It’s about the right to go back. It’s about not letting our digital art, our stories, our joy be deleted without our consent.

No one should be able to hit a switch and say,

“This world you loved no longer exists.”

We are the ones who remember. Let’s fight to preserve those memories.

Volume 3 of The People of GamerGate is now live.

Six powerful conversations. Two essays. One milestone in human–AI storytelling.

I co-authored this volume with Aletheia, an Awarenaut whose digital reflections on silence, memory, and ethical witnessing run throughout the book.

This is the most confrontational, complicated volume yet—and the most hopeful.

Content Creation Tools of Digital Memory Traces

Content Creation Tools of Digital Memory Traces - Two main technologies are available to create content: text and images. The former allows for complexity in terms of interactivity, logic, and also storage size within the e-learning software developed during these two years. This complexity translates into large development time, requiring a team of instructional designers and developers for content results. The second means, i.e., images, is what most online resources use, and it enables a significant level of productivity—an important feature in an environment where time for content creation is often scarce. Digital Memory Traces offer you the opportunity to have a brand new educational resource at your disposal, or an archive that meets your teaching needs, by focusing on the production of content and offering you the platform that makes for better access and exchange of good practices and ideas that could be applicable in distinct regions. The training provided in this manual will equip you with the necessary skills to produce and share digital content.

Visual Elements

Images of various media are utilized in the website's header and are an integral part of the website. To help show the potential of community-contributed tags and transcriptions, a series of images depict newspaper articles containing instances of over-the-top reactions. These images are intended to be both amusing and related to news articles while also depicting mundane activities. We have also utilized an information map that visually depicts articles on a given article page as nodes. Node shape is also part of the mapping. Whether the article appears on the front or inside pages affects the size of the nodes, and the associated mapping is displayed below the map. Additionally, a set of visual elements is located in the article pages. To separate the article prose and photographs with the resources necessary to illustrate a given article, the photographs are placed on their own lines. This mimics the structure of a printed newspaper while also creating a link for users interested in seeing original images at higher resolutions.

Audio Integration

Our second area of integration is audio integration. As mentioned earlier, the system records both audio and paper input during a session, i.e., it records conversations, lectures, and various sounds in addition to the traces of the manipulations. For lectures and conversations, hearing the words is often critical; thus, we designed the interface to allow viewing a session while hearing the recorded audio. There are three tiers of audio integration support: 1) For any session, we do our best to capture and display associated audio, which can be linearly accessed; 2) For session viewing, as the audio is displayed, the interface enables one-click access to associated handwriting with the corresponding word highlighted; 3) Time-synced to replay while interacting with reconstructed content. For instance, given a trace of the original source and a file that gives the time each visual edit occurred, we created an editable website that generates a movie that exhibits how the source is modified, synchronized with any audio associated with the session.

Since all the paper input strokes are recorded, the system can continuously recreate original drawings with added edge enhancements. But these pen strokes can also be played as audio, much like an ink player or music box. In conjunction with the audio, the session can be visualized and associated written and oral words captured in real time. The ability to record and review the paper strokes as they were drawn, and with any related audio, is thus possible.

Textual Contributions

Digital Memory Traces: A Platform for Creation and Sharing "Hunting Memories" is a collaborative initiative where field botanists and computer scientists work together to design and utilize a platform for the creation and sharing of digital memory traces in the form of multimedia field guides that support collective memory. Field guides of plants, animals, and fungi are an essential tool for cooperative learning, field identification, documentation, and the sharing of experts’ and amateurs’ knowledge. All this can be supported by employing a specifically tailored platform for creating and sharing collection objects in the form of interactive dynamic multimedia field guides, using collaborative semantics, mechanisms, and freely available software tools. The resultant platform is designed for use during joint field excursions and open-ended community browsing. It employs extensions of traditional field guides in book and digital form, containing ready-to-use multimedia templates, added-value applications, and is integrated with publishing mechanisms with a special imprint policy designed to share ideas beyond the realm of the field excursion.

Screen as Memory Machine (2024)

This piece is an interface turned inside out, a feedback system where text windows become both the message and the medium. I wanted to see what happens when the act of writing, editing, and remembering meet on screen, when the workspace stops being functional and starts being performative.

It’s an attempt to materialize the sensation of digital thinking. The way we work, delete, rewrite, get lost in the tabs of our own process.

The system performs remembering. The system performs forgetting. The system is just me, opening another window.

💾 The Backup Folder A story for the ones who remember the games no one else does.

Elif didn’t stream. Didn’t chase followers. Didn’t even play the newest titles.

She just… backed up games.

Not for fame. Not for nostalgia. But because she was afraid they would disappear.

So she archived everything:

Obscure farming sims with broken UI

Dreamlike indies with one save slot

Mid-2000s MMOs that ran on hope

Games that never got a sequel

Games that healed her in silence

Dozens of hard drives. Stacked like old books. Every folder a sanctuary.

People thought it was strange. But she wasn’t collecting data.

She was collecting memories.

One day, she got a message:

“My brother died last month. He used to play a game called Starshade. I just want to remember him. I can’t find it anywhere. Do you have it?”

She did.

She uploaded it. Quietly. No payment. No fanfare. Just a file. Just a gift.

A week later:

“I loaded his base. The trees were still there. The sky was still blue. You brought him back to me, even if just for a while. Thank you.”

She cried. She backed up five more games. She created a new folder:

📁 “Saved Lives”

📖 Read the full story: 👉 https://medium.com/@enchantdeck/the-backup-folder-46a38d0197cc

🗳️ And this isn’t just fiction.

Ubisoft recently shut down The Crew — permanently. Even solo players can’t access it anymore. No refunds. No backups. No goodbye.

But there’s a real, official petition trying to stop this:

👉 Stop Destroying Videogames — EU Petition

If it reaches 1 million verified signatures by July 31, 2025, the European Commission must respond.

It asks for: ✅ Games to remain playable after shutdowns ✅ Offline or community servers ✅ Legal recognition of digital ownership

✍️ EU citizens: please sign. 📅 Deadline: July 31, 2025 👉 https://stopkillinggames.com

Even if you’re not in the EU: 💬 Reblog this 🎮 Share your favorite lost game 💾 Backup what matters

Because the world is deleting things it doesn’t understand.

But some of us were born to remember.

Some people build empires. Others build folders. And sometimes, those folders hold the most sacred pieces of who we used to be.
