What is a Memory Dump?
A "memory dump" is a file produced by a computer just before a system crash. This file captures the overall state of the system, and is a historical record of what was happening. It can also offer clues on how to fix system problems, and prevent future failures.What is Project : Memory Dump?
Similar to the memory dump produced by a failing computer system, this project proposes creating an audio "memory dump" - a record that captures the state of our lives during the economic recession, civil unrest, and pandemic of 2020. How did we get here? How are we coping? Is it too late to save the system? Does the system warrant saving? What happens if we reboot?
