Prologue: Pizza Time

Do you know that feeling of shame that incurs each time you order pizza with your friends, the pizza arrives, and you hand them a  wobbly and blunt pizzacutter? The look they give you? And the shame when they remember how equally blunt and wobbly their own pizzacutters are in their sad kitchendrawers. Well, fear no more! Why don’t you suscribe to my pizzacutter-as-a-service online offer? It entails getting a freshly sharpened pizza cutter every time you order pizza with your friends. The round blade turns on a freshly lubricated ball bearing of the highest quality, salvaged from my rollerskates. You’ll cut your pizzas into so many slices that the eating itself will become secondary. Pay 10 euros a month during the first 6 months. There’s an app, of course.

Yes, granted, maybe you don’t need an online service for this, and maybe, yes, manual tools are not really fit for a cloud service because they are rather physical (say the critics of my Pizza-a-a-S business model). And it is true that we have not yet solved this physical-digital barrier in our internal product brainstorming sessions, which is something I keep forgetting to tell the public (but which I have to tell them because of investor relations bla bla bla). But our offer stands, and I predict that in the future we will have more and more online services such as mine. I feel that we have really solved the problem of the pizzacutter – made life better – and taken away the burden of owning this tool and maintaining it yourself. We control it, but you use it.

But back to the more traditional reality of immaterial cloud services.

memoryroom

A few years ago, I played around with a virtual reality headset. Literally played because it’s a product for and by the entertainment industry. I was and still am convinced that my brain – ruler of cognition, discerner of real and wrong, arbiter of here and now – was convinced that I was in a different space at that moment. Clearly, enough of my brain took it seriously and the rest of “me” followed suit. No questions asked.

I wanted to open the hood and started playing around in Unity, which is software for game design. Game design sounds like a tool for placing Super Mario plumbing in the right places and distributing turtle shells in the correct places, but it is much more. In fact, it’s software that designs spaces, allows you to write the physical rules and determine each and every consequence of your actions in those spaces. If you create enough spaces, you’ll create a world.



I started with a simple space, mostly empty except for a few geometrical shapes, such as a floor and a light, to see how it felt, and walked around in it the 2 by 2 meter space inside my bedroom. Visually it was interesting, and I was fascinated by my godlike ability to create a room from scratch, with furniture designed in Blender, another software used for 3D modeling or animation. But I soon got interested by another aspect of the room.

You can listen to a non-existent room, find yourself in it emotionally, without virtual reality. Just by listening to a reverb effect, such as those found in studios, stomp pedals on the floor at gigs and in almost every record you’ll hear. Reverb effects create spaces that sound real but aren’t. They are the cristallisation of reverb rooms, such as those that can be found in fancy studios or other spaces, such as stadiums, small bathrooms, tunnels, caves etc. Anyway I became interested by the experience of the virtual room not by looking at it but hearing it. Since you have to put on headphones with the headset, complete sonic immersion can be achieved. But of course, as the term reverberation demands, you’ll have to create some sort of sound in the room to hear the room’s reverberation, as reverb is by nature a reaction of the surrounding to an initial impulse.  And since, at the time of creating this virtual space, I was too much of a dilettante and uninterested to play around with the mechanics of objects I went for another way of exploring sound.

If you stand in your bedroom, no matter where, you’ll always hear the room’s sound. If you hear your heating in one corner, your upper floor neighbour (damn you), your laptop on your bed and traffic on the street, you’ll always hear a mix of all of the sounds currently present. You’ll hear more of the laptop sound if you’re close to the laptop but it’ll just be a different mix. If you’re in a virtual space, however, you’re able to produce a discrete mix of what you hear and you can choose exactly what you hear in which location, within a millimeter-precision range. There is no sound until you put it there. Instead of designing the sound of a room, you suddenly design discrete sound spaces that can be as small or as big as you want them to be, all in the same spatial setting. Once you understand this, new ways of hearing emerge.

This lead me to experiment with placing sounds in space (meaning that I placed them in the top left corner for example with my mouse on the PC, and chose the size of the sphere around their xyz coordinates). The size of the sphere and the fall-off parameters allowed me to choose the size of the space where I could hear a specific sound. That sound could be anything. A discussion, a background noise, field recording, a whole song, an athmospheric recording inside a café, a bassline, or a drum pattern. It could either be permanent, or activated or manipulated.


I multiplied the sounds in the space. And by placing multiple spheres in a kind of cluster or galaxy, say in the middle of my space, I was able to create a region inside my VR space where I could move through a loop composed of bassline, drumpad etc. But depending on where I was in the space, I could hear a different mix of the loop. Some sounds were completely mute in one corner of the region, while others were louder.

Imagine consuming music like this and spatially moving through stems of songs.

I also pondered the idea of placing conversations in my VR space. Conversations which would ping-pong between phrases, like putting your head near one phone and then another. With a VR space large enough, you could walk through conversations of people. And through your movement inside the space, you could encode time progression. Meaning that you would enter a space,  hear something,  move on and, without a real break, you would slide into the next moment in time. Hearing a conversation before Christmas slowly fade into another conversation after Christmas. New ways of encoding theatrical performances. Or building discrete walls of sound inside a space, which would take determination and acceptance of temporary pain to walk through them, before experiencing sonic peacefulness on the other side of a noisy wall. Imagine  people walking towards the wall, stopping and not going through it. You would feel their reluctance.

And so I manually placed sounds inside the space and experimented. Standing inside the space of some recordings I had made in my favourite bar, I remembered the exact moment I recorded them. I heard my friends talking in the background. I pictured the bar, the people in it and the dim light inside. A moment which I had not only recorded objectively on my Tascam, but which my brain had encoded in its own way as well.
A memory.
I listened to the other sounds I had placed, drony wavering sounds I made in Ableton for example. And even though they did represent a reproducible synthetic sound I created, I had still encoded other attributes with this purely synthetic sound, f.ex. why I wanted to make this in the first place, and how I did it. A whole list of encoded tags my brain had stored for me. Those elements emerged more clearly, perhaps because the space I was standing in was so clean and only filled with things I had put in deliberately. There was no fuzziness and I was able to focus on how I, the different systems in my brain, work in such an empty space. The combination of individual elements I remembered and the “data” retrieved by my brain formed a new object, a data structure.

Epilogue: Solving Memory

Soon enough, I started to analyse the use of this space which I named memoryroom as a working title. I imagined creating a memory as a cloud service, accessible with a VR headset. Accessible from everywhere, this cloud service would allow you to access your memories, encoded as a soundscape. I thought about how our notebooks, and later on our laptops, and even later on the associated cloud storage things we have, would all form a continuous path toward storing our memories outside of our usual memory storage devices. Slowly but surely we will start to externalise the way we remember. Cognitive out-sourcing maybe.
And are we not too busy remembering all the time? Wouldn’t it be easier to just offload all of this and store it somewhere else? If you think about it, memories can be such a drag on our brains. Also, by correctly storing the memories in a safe place all around the globe in datacenters, it would be easier not to lose our memories. And so I thought about what would become possible when people would have their memories accessible in an anonymous format accessible to machine learning algorithms. You could have your memories clustered for example. Access similar memories in the top left corner inside your memory access space and analyse them for yourself. Unlock therapist mode by paying 10% more on your monthly memory subscription and access the memoryroom together with your therapist and boost your self-knowledge, how about that?

And so I thought about creative ways of marketing and payment models, because that is what you do when you stumble on a new idea today, you design-think it into the market. Remember the Pizzacutter-as-a-Service model? Only here, if you can’t pay for the subscription, your memory stays within the company’s control, for your own convenience. That goes without saying. If, for some infrastructural reason, the company would lose track of your memory, for example because of ransomware attacks in datacenters, the company would help you synthesize your memory to the best of their efforts and provide you with a nice memory replacementm̶͇̾ẽ̵̝ṁ̷̬o̸̰͊r̴̩̂y̷͇̾ ̸̻̃r̵͈̎è̷̤p̵̗̚ĺ̵͚a̵̺̓c̸̯͐e̶̛̱

Such would be our level of being there for you, the customer. Helping our customers become mindful by taking away the heavy memories, those that are not stored well, those that reduce your productivity. We would be a memory-first company. Your memories would be our gain. Become a member, to remember!

But so I stopped experimenting with this and refocused on the Pizzacutter idea, told my friends about how I wanted to put this sound installation somewhere for other people to see it, and never did because I had other things to do and because virtual spaces also need spaces, which are difficult to get to because of the market. All I got was this essay. Nice memory though.︎


Max Gindt works in digital policy and has a keen interest in electronic music and the tools that enable it. He likes to think about technology as a cultural product, which he occasionally disassembles and reassembles. He became interested in virtual realities when it was still underground and thinks the earlier realities were better.
