Replay: A Memory Game is a non-linear, interactive narrative exploring the experience of stasis and interruption from a first-person vantage point. It is a traffic accident remembrance story inspired by online room-escape point-and-click games. The viewer can navigate through the scenes and texts, examining a variety of objects. The objects, reoriented from their usual everyday function, become mementos or strange tokens that trigger vivid imagery, fragments of narrative, and a sense of comfort or foreboding.
