very now and then, Ill get sucked into the distracting, immersive, emotional habit of flipping through pictures online. Rifling through albums can stop time. Its disorienting, like stumbling upon an old photograph in your drawer, the type of visually arresting trigger that takes you back through time. For me, I keep a small cigar box full of all my old photographs, dating back to childhood. Theyre all warped now, fading in color. I keep the box tucked away under the bed, forgetting about it because I know going through it would take me places, some good, and maybe some not so good.Maybe youve heard a song that triggered a memory locked up in the corner of your brain. Maybe you run into someone from your past in real life, and you just stop in place. Or, maybe you see a photograph that ties it all together, jarring and powerful. If youve watched Mad Men, youll no doubt recall the famous carousel scene at final episode of the first season, a classic moment where Don Draper talks about a consumer product, based on photographs, that had the rare chance to create a sentimental bond with people.
