Let us recall that the art of memory long relied on a wheeling motion. 24 The reeling motion of the wheel is therefore itself a mnemonic technique. The many contemporary art installations like Gordon’s that play with loops represent a technological remaking of the mnemotechnical apparatus. In other words, by way of image technology, we are still playing with the moving images placed on revolving wheels by Lull, who, understanding the role of movement in memory, represented psychic motion. In fact, this type of circular mechanics, together with the automated motion that includes repetition, constitutes the essential “wheel” that drives our imaginative processes and forges representational history—a spinning continuum of subjectivity, mnemonics, and imagination that marked the prefilmic history of the mechanics of imaging implanted, eventually, in the movie house.
Fancying—that is, the configuration of a series of relationships created on imaginative tracks—was the eVect of a spectatorial movement that evolved further in cinema and the museum. It was the emergence of such 24 CHAPTER ONE sensuous, serial imaging (an aVective transport) that made it possible for the serial image in film and the sequencing of vitrines to come together in receptive motion, and for trains of ideas to inhabit the tracking shots of emotion pictures. ”43 Sensational movements through the space of the garden animated pictures, foregrounding the type of haptic sensing enacted by film’s own animated emotion pictures.
36 In Cicero and in Quintilian, whose arts of memory are particularly relevant here, the type of inner writing that is inscribed in wax is architectural. Places are used as wax. They bear the layers of a writing that can be eVaced and yet written over again, in a constant redrafting. Places are the site of a mnemonic palimpsest. With respect to this rendering of location, the architecture of memory reveals ties to the filmic experience of place and to the imaginative itinerary set up in a museum.
