Nkhani sizimangotulutsidwa kudzera m'mapepala, komanso kupenta, nyimbo, kapena chosema. Nthawi zambiri timamva kuti, "Aliyense ali ndi nkhani yoti anene." Komabe, nthawi zambiri wina amati, "Ndikulakalaka ndikadatha kulemba, chifukwa ndikufuna kukumbukira nkhaniyi." M'malo mwake, ngati timaganizira zothokoza, m'malo mwa talente, aliyense atha kulemba zolemba zazing'ono mu mphindi 40 ndikupanga mlatho pakati pa zakale ndi zamakono.

M'mabwalo awiri osiyana owonetsa zaluso ndi zomwe zalembedwa posachedwa, ndinali wokondwa kuwona njira yosungira zikumbukiro zomwe zakhala zikuyenda bwino m'makalasi anga - ophunzira oyamba kumene kuyunivesite ndi octogenarians m'malo ophunzitsidwa.

Dave Ardito: Mbiri Yosinthidwa

Chiwonetsero chosema cha Dave Ardito, chotchedwa "Mbiri Yokonzedwa," ku Arnheim Gallery, Massachusetts College of Art and Design, adafunsa mafunso m'kabukuka komwe kangapangitse maziko azikumbukiro zazing'ono.

Panali zojambula zamipando yachifumu ndipo izi zimatsagana ndi mafunso, "Mpando ndi chiyani mpando wachifumu?"

Mpando umodzi udatchedwa "Deja Vu," komabe, ndidawawona ngati "umodzi." Bulosha - lomwe lidapangidwa ndi ophunzira ophunzira - adafunsa, adayankha, kenako adafunsanso kuti: "Kodi" deja vu "amatanthauza chiyani? Zimatanthauza 'tawonedwa kale' mu Chifalansa.

Ndinadzipeza ndekha ndikukumbukira za "deja vu." M'malo mwa mipando yoyera, zomwe ndidawona zinali mipando yamatabwa yamtundu wa lalanje yokhala mozungulira tebulo lofananira ndi Azakhali Josie. Tikadali achichepere ndipo timamuyendera, banja nthawi zonse tinkangokhala mozungulira tebulo lofananira nawo m'mipando yovutayi. Ngakhale tinali ndi chipinda chachikulu chochezera, sitinathe kukhala pamenepo chifukwa pulasitiki wowoneka bwino anaphimba mipando yonse. Komabe, popeza maulendo aku Italiya nthawi zambiri amakhala ozungulira chakudya, ngakhale titachezera mosakonzekera, chakudya chokhala ndi thupi komanso tebulo ndi mipandoyo pamapeto pake idakhala malo abwino kugawana nawo chakudya ndi nkhani.

Pano pali lingaliro loyambira nkhani yanu

M'kalasi langa la "Memories to Treasure" la octogenarians, ndidasankha chithunzi ndipo amalemba chilichonse chomwe chabwera m'maganizo. Chimodzi mwa zomwe amakonda kwambiri anali woyendetsa sitima kumpsompsona namwino wachinyamata pa VJ Day. Tidayankhula pafupifupi mphindi 15 pomwe amakumbukira zomwe zidachitika. Kenako munthu aliyense adalemba cholembedwa pamanja, tsamba limodzi pafupifupi mphindi 40. Pambuyo pake tidasinthira mawu miyala yamtengo wapatali, ndikuwonjezera chithunzi, ndikupanga zolemba. Izi zidakhoma pamakoma a khonde monga momwe zasonyezedwera m'nkhani ndi kanema. (2)

Akuluakulu ali othokoza makamaka kuti amatha kugawana nawo nkhani zawo monga taphunzirira kuchokera ku The Memoir Project, mgwirizano wa North End ndi Grub Street. Mayi wina adanena za izi. . "zandithandiza kuwona momwe ndadalitsidwira komanso moyo wabwino womwe ndakhala nawo. Zawonjezera chimwemwe changa." (3)

Iyi ndi njira yosavuta yolimbikitsira kuti mupange chisankho kuti musunge kukumbukira. Yang'anirani mosamala kudzera muma Albums akale. Kapenanso mutha kupita ku konsati kapena kukachezera malo owonetsera zakale kapena malo owonetsera zakale. Mukamwetulira pankhope panu, khalani ndikuthokoza, ndipo gwirani malingaliro mpaka mutha kuyamba kulemba. Nayi njira 5:

• Yambani poganiza za chithunzi, chithunzi, kapena kuchezera komwe kumakumbukira mwapadera.
• Lembani zakumverera komwe kumakupangitsani kukumbukira. Fotokozani iwo.
• Fotokozani malo ndi anthu omwe mudayamba kuwaganizira.
