Artefact — Aphids

A funeral for obsolete technology.

Artefact commemorates the mysterious phenomenon of brand disappearance from Blackberry, to Nokia to Atari. It is a tribute to the immortal consumer icons we have internationally adored, and the intimate and fickle ways we worship them. For this live screening in Perth Cultural Centre, audience members participated in an interactive SMS performance accompanying the film via their mobile phones.

Performance and film created by Willoh S. Weiland and JR Brennan.
