I utilised the in-house Video editing suite at University with a camera and a tripod. I had already taken some prerecorded free to air TV. I then chose still images that piqued my interest. They are loosely organised here to form a narrative.
What frightens me is that some images could have easily been taken from last nights news.
The irony of using modern screens to share some thoughts on the then contemporary medium of free to air TV isn’t wasted on me.
