Digital Ashes
is the Master’s Thesis of artist Bruno Christofoletti Barrenha presented in the Digital Media programme at the University of the Arts Bremen.The project engages with the collection and manipulation of pre-existent digital files as source material to produce artworks. What drives the research is the relation between material death understood here as lost, burnt, damaged, and vulnerable materials in the context of public archives and the role of the Internet as a means for reviving and preserving the past of a people’s shared memory.
The thesis is comprised of a written part, a short film, and this website.
Supervised by Dr. Petra Klusmeyer and Wendelien van Oldenborgh.
