There is beauty in a moment. There are parts and pieces of it that should be put together so that we can all feel the impact of that moment, but also, that moment is likely shared. And in a shared moment, each person that experiences it can contribute a different perspective to it. Each person contributes to the whole that eventually becomes the best truth of that moment.

I want Facet to help with those moments and to help with those memories. Facet should be able to help build a more holistic picture of who someone was by collecting the memories of that person from many possible sources. We have friends and family and coworkers that know us, and each of these (and more) add dimensions to who someone “is”. But there is also the passage of time. People change and evolve as friendships come and go, as jobs are taken and left, and as loved ones are cared for and then moved from. Each of the people in these setting across time has some perspective of the person that they knew, but there’s not a great way to collect all of these piece to build a life.

Facet is a step in that direction. And in collecting and combining these pieces in their proper order, we get to see the depth and breadth of a person across their many relationships over time.

And this is why we make an effort to preserve. There should be a place to gather these memories and these moments to reconstruct a person and represent a life.

Thanks.
