Into the Memory Hole

In 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' George Orwell's prophetic novel about a future world of lies the author wrote about a device called the Memory Hole. It is used to alter any record like a press report or a photograph that no longer fits with the ever-changing policies of the Big Brother regime. Now imagine an historian trying to retrieve even a few of those records before they are doctored or destroyed. Would it be possible to reverse what Orwell described as a process of continuous alteration of the past? 'Into the Memory Hole' is much more than a nostalgia trip. It is an attempt to re-evaluate our assumptions about human history to rediscover the shocking truth about our own world of lies.
