520 3 |a Regret and old age compels Leona to (re)trace her life with a process called PreEmpt (Premortis Extractable Mnemonic Product & Technologies). Their motto is: "How do you want to be remembered?" Weaving past and future leaves the "present" ambiguous as Leona tempers demons: herself, her two daughters, her grandson, her interviewer and the genetic fly who made her famous. They each blame her for being a "bad mother". Like a mnemonic scrapbook, images and text are interdependent. I refer to this work and process as Automnemographia. I define automnemographia as a constructive process in which a subject's story is a personal message to herself, but requires a graphical representation of that story's memory in order to chronicle and affirm that experience. Tracing timelines around the contours of one's non-fiction results in self-invention. Whether she is present or absent, the elements, written or drawn, are her domain.
