Joel (played by Jim Carey) can erase his memory of Clementine (played by Kate
Winslet), he must bag up every object that reminds him of her. More than twenty
years after the film's release, most of these objects live in our phones and
the cloud, and they often reappear even when we don't want them to. This
presentation will review a decade of my coauthored research which examines how
people manage their digital possessions and virtual memories following a
breakup as a way of more deeply engaging with the themes and lessons from the
film. <o:p></o:p></span></p><br>About the film: </div>Joel Barish, heartbroken that his girlfriend underwent a procedure to erase him from her memory, decides to do the same. However, as he watches his memories of her fade away, he realises that he still loves her, and may be too late to correct his mistake.<div><br></div><div>This special Science on Screen® presentation is not eligible for Member Monday tickets; regular Member discounts apply.</div>Science FictionPT1H48MR2026-02-08USenJim Carrey
