During this time, approximately 20,000 visitors came to view the installation and contributed over 3300 objects in their possession, digitally scanning and describing them. This information was stored in a database and organized by the Kohonen Self-Organizing Map algorithm that positioned objects of similar descriptions near each other in a two-dimensional map. The map of objects was projected in the gallery space and was also accessible online at www.pocketsfullofmemories.com where individuals in the gallery and at home could review the objects and add comments and stories to any of them.",
