MemoRekall is part of a larger project on the documentation, preservation and analysis of performing arts.

Further to this first experiment, the team decided to develop a tool for video annotation: MemoRekall. It was released in 2015. This work is supported by many cultural institutions and the French Ministry of Culture.
