Memory - like cinema, in Andrei Tarkovsky's conception of the form - can be seen as a kind of "sculpting in time". In such an understanding of the term, the process of remembering is less like taking books from a neatly ordered library shelf and more like an act of creation in and of itself, a complex pulling of threads to produce an image that is true only insofar as it expresses something deep about its maker's subconscious.
