Epic memory is about the folding of past and present through the medium of poetics and its reiteration. We are concerned with questions of medium, memory and performance in relation to the percolation of the past through located poetics.

The base material for this site was authored by Christopher Witmore in 2002/2003. Since then Project Members, headed up by Professor Richard Martin, have collaborated in expanding the content and adding links within the text. Subsequent addtions to the first document may be traced by clicking "versions" at the lower right of the page.
