Archive without archive

This is an example of another extremely interesting image which I came across.I feel that by altering the individual containers, such as in the image, we may enhance the idea of the individual lending to the formation of the collective. In many mays the archive may seem a stronger proposal for its simplicity - by the ommision of any physical objects which each group may lend to our archive. An archive without physical documentation if you will. The archive then fails to take on too literal a meaning and becomes open to individual interpretation and percecption, as the building has done for decades. Each container creates differing conditions - a spatial representation of a groups involvement with the scheme or project in the previous three weeks. The simplicity lends to its complexity. http://www.geekologie.com/2008/03/26/tetris-shelves-3.jpg
