Archipiélagos virtuales: Internet y registros de memorias en la sociedad líquida

the filming with mobile phones of mass student demonstrationsin 2011 and of the earthquake-tsunami that struck chile on the 27th of february2007, followed by the release on internet of these images and information-especially the videos posted on youtube-allows us a unique opportunity to thinkupon the incorporation of the tics into the process of recording memories. in thiscase, the reference to a "sailor" navigating the cyberspace aligns itself with respectto the semantic fields offered by the metaphor of a "liquid society". in this context,we are addressing the use of a digital heritage -the virtual community and universal sharing of images-as a catalogue of both memories and pieces of history:isolated messages, composed by both individuals and the collective that, together,form an archipelago of cultures.
