RECOLLECTION

Syllabification: (rec·ol·lec·tion)

Pronunciation: /ˌrekəˈlekSHən/

noun:
      the action or faculty of remembering something:

We all hold the ability to leave a lasting impression on the strangers, acquaintances, and loved ones we interact with on a day to day basis, but there's something unique about the first interaction; it lingers into the crevices of each and every encounter thereafter, almost like a strong fragrance that cannot be mistakened. Recollection is designed on the principles of repetition and explores the different depths of impressions that have been left upon ones self. The sequence is governed by three tiers, each reaching a new surface:

• tier three: consistent comments made towards ones self on a first impression basis; videos appear thrice
• tier two: aesthetic and fact driven knowledge towards ones self that are developed through observation and time; videos appear twice
• tier one: single interactions that are often reflected upon that touch beneath the surface; videos appear once

These are minute components that have become a sense of identification for ones self. Each individual tile is kept veiled to protect its content, in the same sense that during a single interaction, one cannot accurately depict the experience that has yet to occur.
