Everything Connects to Everything
On an ultra wide screen, suspended from the ceiling, is a standalone film exploring the commodification of data on our lives and the complexity of networked technologies. Making use of montage as an ideological technique as well as an aesthetic one; the film reveals complex connections between seemingly unrelated devices, interfaces and technologies across various scales. From people generating data in exchange for social connection, to autonomous systems and data mining farms, this piece explores how all of us are connected via our data through invisible systems which we don’t always understand. Finally, we examined what these networks are built from (and who or what builds them). The film begins to give a sense that the tools we are creating to master the world, are re-mastering us.
