A great article was introduced to the group today about Google digitizing books and making an enormous digital library, but also the consequences of trying to do it. There was a line about a "book orphanage" which brought about several visuals for me in my head. We discussed this idea of a cloud of information. Also, we discussed the idea of lost property, and the idea as a person as lost property. The idea of leaving traces is still strong, and whether one has the ability to do this or not. I came up with the phrase breadcrumbs of a life.
