While I was thanking people for their acknowledgment of my work, I remembered a post I read at Zeit-Raum a few days ago. I want
to thank Livia Solome Gnos for her original thinking. The text below is but a poor translation of her discussion made with the help of Google translation. I find her concept of a "collective memory blog" to be very interesting. What is most striking in her thinking is the idea that bloggers are charting or redefining what "history," "virtual historicism as I understand it" or "collective memory" will mean in the future. If anyone has anything to add to this discussion their thoughts would be appreciated.

At present in different blogs around, I visit her regularly and read daily some articles or look myself according to beautiful pictures. To me it is noticeable that there is a category of Blogs, which can be compared to an aesthetic diary or record of poetic thoughts drawn from pictures or thoughts collected on the Web. I would like to call this kind of blog a contribution to the collective memory - It is interesting along with the fact that I visit other blogs, that contains comments, or messages, referred from these particular blogs in such a way that they complement or reflect each other. Within certain topics or forms they create together a conscience or picture of the world.

I translated your comment and understood that you see certain aesthetic journals or blogs such as mine as serving “collective MEMORY.” This is a very interesting idea; the idea of a large, virtual social reality. -That blogs can create a personal narrative of time or history and reflect that in their reflection of each other.
I like that you have a picture OF one OF those rare flowers growing. To me these flowers represent an “aria” or breath. -that is from a mystical perspective.
