Briefcase . 2007

Briefcase (2007)

Theme: The Negativity of Technology

VISUAL RAGE Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore.




The briefcase represents the terrorist’s tools in recreating an attack. Media has provided us with the essential necessity: movies, images, information which one needs to setup a terrorist attack.

 

The briefcase responds to the visual, a movie based on the United 93 crash. While the visuals are chaotic, when the user opens the briefcase, he/she will change the mood of the visual by subverting its sound. Imagine a subtle, jazz  soundtrack playing for this movie. A direct attack on movies how its being used to manipulate its viewers by its visuals/ sound.
