A Smart Paper Clip That Turns Any Diary Into Your Personal Sound Journal
A New Way To Experience Your Old Memories
Memories allow us to relive our life's most treasured moments. However, most common ways of capturing these memories trap them in 2 dimensions like pictures or journals.
Memoiré is a smart clip that allows pictures and text in your journals to speak, opening up a new way to experience those old memories.
Background
Sounds are one of the earliest senses that a human develops. The human fetus learns to react to sounds as early as 12 weeks into pregnancy.
People associate and relate sounds to some of their fondest memories.
Problem
The way we record memories are often mono-sensory. Pictures or Journals have long been the norm. However, these mediums miss a key element - Sounds.
Sounds of your life. Raw. Candid. Personal.
