“...there is no unitary memory but an enormous number of isolated levels of recall, one on top of the other. The work of private recollection cannot then count as an homogeneous whole and also, thereby, is not a continuous history whose reconstruction or construction is performed by the science of history writing, but would consist of the activation of single segments of recollection stacked as energy levels. The pictorial analogue of such a memory model is collage”
