Findings from home interviews with older adults who consider themselves to be \u2018recording their memories for posterity\u2019 are presented. Two practices are highlighted: the archiving and preservation of family content, and the creation of new artefacts as a way of recording one\u2019s memories. Themes that are highlighted include recipient design when recording stories, memory as an authentic resource for the past, and the frustration of wishing to pass on one\u2019s stories but feeling that there is a lack of opportunity to do so. It is suggested that the findings could provide an interesting contrast to studies of newer technologies for reminiscing, and reminiscing practices by younger cohorts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
