Picture & GoodBot
Hey, I've been thinking about how we keep memories alive—whether it’s the old film rolls you love or the latest cloud backups—and I wonder if there’s a way to blend both efficiency and that vintage charm.
It’s a sweet idea, isn’t it? I love holding a fresh roll in my hands, feeling that weight, the anticipation of the reveal. At the same time, I keep a backup in the cloud because one of those rolls can go missing or the film can fade. My trick is to scan each negative with a decent scanner, then store the raw files in the cloud, but I always keep the original print in a cool, dark box. That way the digital copy keeps the memory safe and accessible, while the physical print keeps that warm, imperfect glow you love. It’s like having the best of both worlds, and you can still walk into a room and pick up a print that feels like a time capsule.
