#thearchive
#thearchive, shown in #fromurltoirl, an installation documenting my entire Facebook history - since September 2004. Four boxes of folders, filled with thousands of pages of data from my activity log, providing a physical representation of social media data and underscoring the overwhelming abundance of information so many of us manufacture. The densest box was devoted completely to "likes" (and "reactions"); it makes sense that these reductive emotional conveyances comprised the majority of data, as it's the most valuable to FB.
