“For the transparency of its preservation, its security and its stability, it is necessary that the record pass the archival threshold, the space beyond which no alteration or permutation is possible and where every written act can be treated as evidence and memory.”
Luciana Duranti, “Archives as a Place.”

community, but it is memory we have banished…”
-Howard Mansfield, In the Memory House
