Marlie Sromberg's Dear Diary 1.0. Netherlands.
Dear Diary 1.0. Wooden PC.
Topsecret porcelain and silicone USB stick made for Dear Diary.
Marlie Romberg's goal with Dear diary 1.0 was to "materialize the ungraspable fast digital world and create an opportunity for nostalgia in this future world (...) Dear diary 1.0 is thus both the literal and the figurative manifestation of the worlds colliding. A physical reminder that increasingly, the real and the digital are becoming indistinguishable." The computer is embedded into the wooden desk, the keyboard was laser cut into the surface... Marlie explains that wood was an obvious choice because it 'reminds you of old days'... gnalry.
