An interactive programme in which a fictitious personality has been skin scanned, interfacing the diverse experiences of the patients and staff involved. A direct and disquieting work which challenges preconceived views of 'sanity' and social segregation.
Unauthorised Access: it is no accident that social control reproduces itself into technological forms. The reduction of information to binary representation leads to a levelling process of data, where that information can be psychological profiles, battle tactics or credit card details. Here number crunching produces an image of anonymity through its incomprehension to humans at machine level. We take no responsibility for the way data-bases collate information.
Commissioned by Moviola for VP95 Collaboration Programme with support from North West Arts Board.
