Memories,
they say my images are my memories. No no no! These are not memories:
this is all real what you see — every image, every detail, everything is
real, everything is real and it’s not a memory, it has nothing to do
with my memories anymore. Memories are gone, but the images are here,
and they are real! What you see, every second of what you see, here, is
real. Is real. Right there in front of your eyes, what you see, it’s
real. There, in front of you. Yes, from that screen, it’s all real.
Jonas Mekas, Out-Takes from the Life of a Happy Man, 2012.
