COMMUNITY MEMORY WORKSHOPS
Join LSU School of Art faculty and graduate students for Community Memory Workshops in September and October in conjunction with the exhibition, DISK FULL. In these workshops, we’ll consider the cultural weight of our digital remains while learning practical skills: using apps to 3D scan heirlooms and building DIY servers to create personal or community archives.
So much of life takes place online now, from messages and photos to the digitalization of objects through 3D scanning apps. As our memories become less physical, we’re left with a pressing question: what happens to these digital histories when we pass? Artists and academics Janna Ahrndt and Christine Bruening invite participants to reimagine mourning, memory, and preservation in a hands-on workshop that explores these questions. Blending reflection with making, this workshop offers space to imagine how we might carry our memories forward in ways that are secure, meaningful, and truly our own. Selected scans will be printed and added to the exhibition DISK FULL through October 20, 2025 at Glassell Gallery before being returned to participants.
