*Abstract: *
I describe the use of a new camera from Microsoft, Cambridge Research
Laboratories, not yet commercially available, called 'SenseCam'. SenseCam
(SC) is worn around the neck and automatically takes colour photographs in
response to sensory changes it detects. Wearing SC for, say, 2 hours
produces approximately 150 to 200 photographs that can be viewed, days,
weeks, months, or years later, typically at a rate of one picture per
second. Thus, a two-hour event can be viewed in just a few minutes. The
effects of SC photographs on memory are quite remarkable and induce what I
term "Proustian moments" of amazingly detailed and vivid recollection of
events that cannot otherwise be remembered or only poorly remembered. In
this paper I describe a neuroimaging study of SC and current work with
several amnesic patients. And, if I remember......., I will wear an SC for
the presentation.
