Wait, What?
There are a lot of cool stories that spin memory.
Specifically improperly functioning memory.
Maybe the most clever is Memento.
The dude can only remember the last fifteen minutes.
But he, like every other protagonist, is on a quest.
But because he can remember only 15 minutes, he’s got to write stuff on his arm.
Or there’s the memory loss in the Bourne Identity movies.
Dude is a stone cold killer, and then something snaps.
He suddenly becomes a morally righteous character.
As the story goes, he was programmed by the assassin people.
And then something snapped and all this programming came “undone.”
Then there are movies about ladies who have amnesia.
They wake up and their loving husbands are trying to help them get their memory back.
Who Are You?
Only they are not really their husbands.
They are evil characters who killed their husbands or something and are trying to slide in their place.
Memory is a weird kind of thing.
There is something anthropologists call a “collective memory.”
This is a metaphor that represents the total knowledge of a tribe of humans.
Stuff that gets passed down from generation to generation.
Every time they tribe, or somebody in the tribe, learns something new, this gets added to the collective memory.
And every time a new generation pops up, they all soak up the entire collective memory of the tribe as part of their upbringing.
So long as the tribe remains intact, this collective memory can become pretty huge.
Modern memory is used a lot differently than it used to be used.
It’s only been a few hundred years since we humans invented things like school.
Everybody Knows
But even then, it was the same basic idea of a “collective memory.”
Important stuff passed down from generation to generation.
As societies got bigger and bigger, they needed a much more efficient way of keep this “collective memory” intact.
Plenty of movies have been made about different people experiencing the same event, but having different memories or meanings of that same event.
Tribal elders and teachers make a lot of effort to make sure the “right stuff” gets into our brains.
But random stuff that happens, not so much.
Consider this idea.
Better Stuff
Unless the stuff in your memory was specifically put their through deliberate effort, it might not be true.
This includes all of your social situations.
Which, unfortunately, are the things that drive our personality.
Change THOSE memories, and you can change anything.
