- Abstract
Five years ago, Maceió experienced an environmental catastrophe due to irregular mining carried out by the company Braskem. On that occasion, 60,000 people left their places of residence due to soil subsidence, and upon vacating, they wrote protest messages on the structure of their homes, which are part of the memory not only of this population, but of Alagoas society as a whole. . The writings bring traces, traces, information that feed collective memories, however ephemeral, as real landscapes are vulnerable to external factors, with digital networks as a preservation resource, perhaps soon the only one, where they are inserted into social networks in photography. This article aims to succinctly analyze the importance of infomemorial traces present in the writings on the houses of the so-called ghost neighborhoods, recorded in photographs. The methods used are bibliographic and digital survey; Next, the analysis of photographs made available on the social network Instagram is carried out, in a specific profile of the project entitled Projeto Ruptura. After analyzing the photographs, we concluded that the material available on Instagram is important for individual and collective memories of former residents of ghost neighborhoods, these new “places of memory”, which allow access and dissemination of this content. However, the memory consolidated in material or intangible heritage is protected, but the ephemeral memory present in those registered can only rely on digital records, which are also ephemeral.
