A digital platform of 3D scans, available in a physical sculpture “forever”.
Contains 3D scans from the whole island, uploaded by people as a memory of small or big things that gave/gives Refshaleøen its special character. The black box, like on a plane, is a record of everything that has happened/is happening on the Island.

In this way the black box becomes a new urban function, that could be present in all neighbourshoods containing memories of the movement of time

The black box becomes a physical sculpture that can be consumed, just as one consumes the older digital memories and records. The black box and its ever-expanding data will remain on the island and be accessible forever. A new urban function
