This text is based upon the title of In sear c h of Lost Tim e by Marcel Proust (1871-1922), the literary production he started after this mother's death in 1906 and wich was published up until 1927. With this article I hope to contribute to diversify the breath of thoughts on the subject of the artificial environment specially from the 'disfunctional'' dimension of the object. This area of thought was proposed by Jean Baudrillard in this text The Syste m of Objects of 1968. In order to attain these objectives there are two main topics to deal with: first to see an object in its dimension of an “image-object” that is, as an activating element of the unconscious memory of the individuals. Secondly, the permanent and utopic desire to conceive of different recollection resources. A long the text legendary examples are quoted, that cross with various aspects of philosophy specially those of language, and aestethics.
