In large-scale disasters, many people lose the reminders of their past lives, such as albums, diaries, videos, and souvenirs. Such reminders are strongly connected with treasured memories, and they often face the difficulty of getting over the psychological shock of the disaster, resulting the difficulty to restart their new lives. This theme aims to support such people recall their memories by providing triggers (e.g., photos, newspapers, maps, popular songs), and uses the memories to communicate with other people who have similar experiences.
