#memory model

Part 1 of “Memory Model”, a short 32-page comic about racial slurs. The title is supposed to reference the (somewhat dated) Atkinson-Shiffrin dual-store memory model. It proposed that memories are divided into short term and long term; short term memories are constantly in flux, but each time information gets rehearsed, it is encoded into more indefinite long term memory. It’s also kind of similar to how racial slurs gain impact over time, both linguistically and individually, as context and history grows with each use.  The title is also a reference to the term “model minority.” I wanted the comic to feel like you were called a slur, even if you’ve never been called this particular one. The full zine will be available at a later date, and can be seen along with originals at the SVA MFA Illustration Book Show on Monday, September 21st at the SVA Gramercy gallery, 6pm. 

This page on cppreference.com is surprisingly in-depth but some of the related pages are pretty vague and imo outright misleading.
