Salvador Dali's thinking is timeless, he easily anticipated Digital Tears long before they appeared. That is why the original painting is called "The Persistence of Memory". Possessing a prophetic gift, Salvador prepared the caring public for the global Digital Flood by erecting a mental ark with his works. Dali, who painted himself in this picture, gleefully blends with the oil streams flowing into the whirlpool of Digital Infinity that he has never left.
