Reflection

If I had the opportunity to complete this project again, I think I would alter the resulting product to be a more tangible, interactive visualization. I believe that an interactive result, whether it be related to light or smell, might provide a more memorable experience than a curated page with related imagery and people because the original memory of conversation already exists with the same topics and people; rather than ingraining a memory by using information already existing in the memory, it might be beneficial to study the results of using two methodologies in the recollection of memories. Unfortunately, I did not get where I wanted to in this project; I attempted coding the resulting pages with Arduino without any success, so my coding abilities have a lot of room for improvement. Also, although the coding primarily navigated computer files (and for demonstration purposes used photos collected prior to the experiment), I think artificial intelligence would have been of use.
