any1??

umm... the song from Cats?

 

[w i l l s]

what songs that?? lol
havent seen Cats

 

[braindrainedAsh]

The song is called Memory lol do a google search for the lyrics.

I dunno if this is just me, but I see memories as kinda like pages of a "living" book... moments, words, flashes of video clips, images...

The motif of memory sounds great. Think about how you would represent your own memory. Grab an A4 page and draw your "memory"... see what sort of symbols and ideas you come up with and it may help you with descriptions for this theme.

I agree memento would b perfect, good movie too
The herb related to memory is rosemary, they always wear sprigs of the stuff on anzac day and remembrance day cos as the saying goes 'its a smell that you'll never forget'

yeah along those lines, smell is meant to be the most powerful trigger to memory...

"why do we remember the past and not the future?"
