This project includes a 9 part non-linear story, the narrative of which draws heavy influence from Lucas Thurston's concept album. In the future when science has advanced society towards one goal, to reach the edge of the universe. The story will be broken into parts allowing the viwer to slowly piece together the true nature of this society. Exploring themes of increased surveillance and the prevalence of news narrative.
The video itself will be compiled from "news footage" and "surveillance footage" as well as scripted dialog sections; exploring the societal decay brought on by digital drugs.
In addition ( if approved by the curatorial comity)
Madness is a fundamental component of the concept album this story is based upon. Drawing from that, the piece would also occasionally offer narrative conversation about the environment around the piece, describing art on the adjacent wall or directly beside it.
