A video essay that reproduces the memory of the body. The role of the body in today's society has been reduced to the fingertips handling a smartphone. Therefore, I will record my personal daily body through 3D scanning and its movements through motion capture to explore the importance of the body as not just an interface for manipulation, but as something that shapes personal history and identity. And, as memories are important in subjectively defining who we are, we will have an avatar of our past self's body tell the story by playing back the text of the diary with a synthetic voice.
