An interactive installation that delves into the paradox that attempting to forget unwanted memories deepens the memory instead. This ironic counterproductive effect reflects memories as traces in time, where the attempts of erasure paradoxically reinforce them.

People can engage with the machine by pulling the pen attached on the box to inscribe memories they wish to forget. This action activates a pulley system that raises a stamp block. When people release the pen, the stamp block will drive the nails into the wood block, imprinting the trace of "FORGOT". 

During the process, the will to forget unwanted memories is transformed into the power of imprinting, and a tension lies between the "FORGOT" as both textual erasure and physical trace. The will to erase traces ironically deepens it instead, mirroring the experience that attempting to forget unwanted memories intensifies them. The absurdity experienced during interaction expose human will to a greater context of time and gravity, revealing the impossibility of forgetting and illuminating the interconnectedness of traces and time, anti-traces and gravity.
