I read this article which talks about how people used wire photo systems to send photographs across long distances before the internet existed. It explains how inventions like the Belinograph used telegraph and telephone wires to transmit images, which helped people share important moments much quicker than before.

How people shared photos in the 1930s: The History of Photo Transmission

This was helpful for my Memori project because it showed me that people have always wanted to capture, share and preserve memories, even before modern technology. The technology has changed over time but the reason behind it is still the same. People want to hold onto meaningful moments and feel connected to others through photos, objects and stories.

It also helped me understand that Memori is not just about creating another digital app. It links to a much bigger history of people using technology to protect and share personal memories. Reading this made me think more about how my app could continue this idea in a modern way, by allowing users to scan sentimental items, save memories and keep the stories behind them in one place.

Overall, this article helped me see that memory keeping has always been important. Whether it was wire photos in the 1930s or digital memory boxes today, people still want ways to look back, feel connected and preserve the moments that matter most to them.
