"I think of the spectacle of forgetting with computers, history actually can be erased. The limits of historical memory shrink. The spectacle, what Guy DeBord called 'relationship between people that is mediated by images' propels itself by its own visual effect." (Paul Pfeiffer in an interview with Jennifer Gonzalez, in: Bomb Magazine, 1 April 2003, n.p.)
Slightly wavy, light development spots in places (hardly disturbing).
