What if you never had to forget anything again?
In the era of archived lifetimes you will be able to summon up any memory or life experience… Change the way we work and learn, improve our health, change relationships… It will change what it means to be human, and it is happening

Beginning of pervasive computing
The early days Nobody knows
So we enter an era of pervasive computing.
We don’t see mobile devices as access devices. We see them as sensors.

Omnipresent sensors, that enable a whole new era of services that understand the individual

Enabling new services that know: where the user is, what the user is doing, who is there, etc.. These 2014 mobile devices can know more about us than we know ourselves

Lifelogging enables the concept of a surrogate memory. A private digital archive that sees what you see, hears what you hear, ‘knows you’ and is always available to help you.
Lifelogging has been around for decades.

In 2014, lifelogging can generate thousands of images per day, hours of audio and tens of thousands of data and sensor readings per day.
Images, audio, locations, movements, temperature, heartbeats, interactions, communications, information, activities…

Archived lives will create a whole new set of
industry and society. A new Google for archived lives, but; Huge data storage challenges Data security with huge consequences Privacy of the lifelogger and bystanders
Privacy and reputation of the lifelogger and the subjects/ bystanders.
Mobile devices become context-aware pervasive computing devices Throw the ‘store switch’ .. begin the era of lifelogging and surrogate memories New challenges and opportunities Then consider the impact of implantable devices
