In this class we understood the difference between experience and memory. I think memory is something one remembers whereas experience is something that is felt. Memory is a more recorded experience. Memory is the information created to store, it is the base of an experience. It is created to identify the future situation in which an experience can be felt. It is important to know how to design an experience which is by sensing it and manipulating it by changing its parameters.
