「您正在使用『生前記憶續存服務』，您將可選擇三段記憶。在您生命終結時，本服務將刺激您的神經元使其顯影。記憶記載時間為一根火的時間...」以眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意接收下來的記憶，儲存成文字、圖像、聲音、影像...。藉由記憶的碎片，我們得以回返某個特定的時間點，讓時空扭曲交疊，但記憶卻不一定可靠。導演陳芯宜與編舞家周書毅共同創作與演出，以舞蹈呈現記憶中難以言說的部分。殘影是人眼在物體消失後仍保留0.1-0.4秒的影像，而我們現在製造的影像或記憶，可以在未來留存多久？

 

－ Welcome to the “ Afterlife Memory Trust.”  With us, you will be selecting three pieces of your memory to relive by the time you decease. When your life terminates, we will stimulate your neurons to bring out the designated memories. Each vision lasts a light time. －

 

We perceive the world through eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind. These sensory is stored as memory in words, pictures, sounds and moving images. With fractions of the transcribed memories, we are capable of returning to a specific point in time, which is an act of distortion and overlaying of time and space. However, memories aren’t always reliable. 

 

A man wakes up in an unknown dimension of consciousness. What is it that he sees, hears and feels? Is it memory, virtual reality or terminal lucidity?

In Afterimage for Tomorrow, director Singing Chen collaborates with choreographer Shu-Yi Chou to perform the ineffable in memories. This metafiction film is set in a futuristic world, where memories can be uploaded and perpetuated, thus leading to the discussion of what in life is worth storing. Persistence of Vision; when an object in rapid motion vanishes from sight, the human brain creates a 0.1-0.4 seconds of optical illusion. How long will the images and memories we create today live in the future?
