"A desktop documentary through the lens of touristic cameras"

We are on Taksim Square watching the aftermath of this last mass demonstration in the city, before the COVID-19 pandemic. Two voices reflect on what they see on the screen. A child playing with a red balloon, youngsters dancing on the street, people taking photos, Marina Abramovic's first exhibition in Istanbul... As the narrative unfolds, images take new meaning: These are screen recordings of municipality of Istanbul's 7/24 live and open-access 'Touristic Cameras' taken on the 8th of March Women's Day 2020. March 8, 2020: A Memoir is a multi-voiced desktop essay attempting to find the blind spots of such images, traveling in time via screen recordings.
