Description
Through the lens of evolving recording devices, from 16mm film reels and VHS tapes to modern gadgets, CCTV cameras, and military thermal imaging, we follow an army man. He locks his trophies in a jewelry box as a keepsake, cherishes a family photo, and films recruits at boot camp. Yet, he’s captured on CCTV committing a crime — a deed forever etched in a computer’s memory.
