P52 / VOLUME 3 / The Eden Box
The Threshold
A database promises to connect everything. Certain pieces of string explain why it should not. In 1990, Claire Pasquier and Nora Bensimon inherit documents that generations have protected, moved, and annotated. Digitizing the Collection seems at last to offer a way to connect what the boxes keep apart. But a technical link does not always preserve the precautions that accompanied an artifact.
