The concept Over Memory, coined by the portuguese scholar Joao Delgado, refers to areas in individual and collective memory that are conceived as meaningless and purposeless even though they are central to pertinent mapping*. Over Memory Media Archives is a project of documentation and cataloguing of cities which attempts to bring a poetic and critical approach to the israeli urban space. In the projects documentation of seemingly irrelevant aspects of history and place memory structuring, in an attempt to create poetic of the city's over memory. In the archives video, sound and photo items catalogued by category, date and time of the documentation, city, street and description.
